@simplyfelicity: @mfa_lady: yup I have an MFA in Creative Writing and a BS in Public Relations and Journalism. I have been a publicist and grant writer and now I work as a writer for a city agency. I mainly write a monthly newspaper for all of our residents that has about the same circulation as the Boston Globe.
-
BS in electrical engineering, MS in industrial engineering. I work in quality control. So kinda. There's no major for quality engineering so it isn't like I could've gone to school for that.
-
I majored in psychology in undergrad; have a PhD in social psychology; and I'm a psychology researcher at a university. So yep, use it daily!

@Finfan: did you have to get a masters in library science ?

I majored in Elementary Education and General Science and minored in mathematics. A few years ago, I got my TESL. I am a K-5 ESL teacher, so it's related!

Double major in French/History. I'm now a high school French teacher, so yes I use it!
-
Yes and no: For undergrad, I majored in math and spanish. I'm a math professor now, and the spanish has served me well on some vacations
-
Astrophysics. I didn't finish. Which isn't even remotely shocking since honestly that's a bit over my head. I wound up a nanny and now SAHM. Kind of wish I had some sort of child development education, but it's fine.
-
I majored in wildland recreation management. Before SAHM I was a recreation coordinator for a municipality (think Leslie Knope on parks and rec)
-
I double majored in Criminology and Psychology and am an Intelligence Analyst, so fairly directly related.

I have a BFA in graphic design and am currently switching careers to become a teacher.

Secondary Education- English with minors in Spanish and Theatre. I teach HS English, so yes.

@Mrs Green Grass: I was also a double major in English and Psychology then got my masters in education and teach.
-
BS Finance, MS Information Systems and yes, my work is related to both degrees.
-
BA in Linguistics, and I'm an editor, so basically related!

Yup. Undergrad was English composition with a Linguistics minor. I taught English for 5 years and slowly got my MLS in Library Science and then became a librarian, which I've been doing the past 8 years.
-
Yes! Bachelors and Masters in Social Work and I am a licensed clinical social worker.
-
Yes - I have a bachelor's in sociology and master's in social work, and was a child protection social worker for several years. I also have a master's in elementary education and taught middle school social sciences and English for a couple of years as well, so yes again!
Currently a SAHM - no degree available for this career
-
I have a degree in architecture and an MBA in real estate development.
I use both all the time. I work (or did on an indefinite maternity leave) as an architect and consult on redevelopment projects for highest and best use.

Bsc in Biology/Chemistry which I don't use all that much
BEd in Elementary Ed and MEd in Early Literacy which I use all the time

I'm getting a phd in the same humanities discipline that I majored in (and have gotten an ma and mphil in since starting my phd program), so yes!
-
My first degree was in fine arts (minors in global studies, math, and architecture), my second was in civil engineering. I'm a civil engineer (transportation-related) now.
-
Love how many engineers there are here - if I went back to school, I think it would be for an engineering-related discipline!
As it is, I majored in anthropology and my career is in HR - not exactly the type of people studying that I intended, but it's definitely helpful!
