Career Path by mhbabanna(op): 3:51pm On Apr 30, 2017

Good Afternoon nairalanders, I need an advice on what path to dive into. I have a B.tech in Mathematics and Computer Science and an M.tech in Applied Mathematics with specialisation in Fluid mechanics, now I want to enrol for a PhD but honestly I have lost interest in Mathematics.
Which other area can I dive into with my background for my PhD. I would have love to go for something like International Relations or Public Health safety

But with my background you think I would be offered admission?

A background in mathematics! yes I think so, but you might be required to offer some courses taken by lower classes. basically, you may be advised to start as an MPhil/PhD student rather than PhD direct.
