My son is studying neuroscience. He does not like it and does not think it is what he expected. He has always loved computers and gaming and done quite a lot of on line programming and wants to Change to this within the university. I have told him to contact the careers dept tomorrow to set the ball rolling as this has all just come to light.
Some background. Loves medical things, wanted to do medicine. We are in Scotland and when doing his higher prelims my husband became unwell and died 8 weeks before his higher exams. He dropped one as couldn't cope and managed AAAB accepted that medical school wouldn't take him with only 4 highers and 1 B grade so thought neuroscience might be interesting but due to all our emotional states and grief didn't look into this as much. He now thinks that the schools idea to do highers in his 6th year (year 13) and then do advanced highers elsewhere maybe would have been good but we were making these decisions within weeks of his dad's death and to be honest it was too much.
He is a ver practical and creative person and my question is really how easy is it to transfer courses and if anyone has done computing any ideas. He is at a Scottish university and wants to stay at the same uni.
