Q: I am interested in learning the above language next year-please can you find institutions in Durban, where I can attend night/part time studies as I am employed in a permanent position. I do not want to study via correspondence.

Q: I am a second year student studying a BSc in Info Systems. Next year I have to choose my majors but the problem is I still don’t know what I career I can pursue with the degree I am doing. I will have to choose between Computer Science and Economics because I have to take Info Systems. I know that I want to work in the business world as a type of economist. Are there careers that u know of that incorporate technical skills as well as business skills that tie in with Computers of Economics?

A: Firstly I would say that you are doing a strong degree here, well done. Let’s focus on doing Economics or Computer Science. IS career opportunities can take you into the technical realm and/or the business realm. So I would say look at what interests you more. If you want to get more into business management then the economics side would be more important (maybe consider management as well). If the technical side of things is your major interest then back that up with Computer Science.

Q: I have three choices, to do: B.Sc (physics), chemical engineering or civil engineering, which one should I choose considering that I'm in South Africa?

This means that there will be opportunities for people involved in the construction of buildings, bridges and roads.
