I'm curious as to what kinds of jobs do you forsee with this community development degree.
I have thought about doing the same or urban planning. However, there are no jobs in it currently so I hesitate for myself.

I don't really know. That is why I'm asking. I would take a Job in any community organization. I do not need a ton of money I have kept My bills reletively low. But I do plan on getting a masters in ur ban planning.

I obtained my Engineering Degree Last year from CMU off campus programs and I can't say enough positve about CMU. They really strive to offer a quality education for the working adult. I am taking some classes now at OCC that I can apply towards a graduate degree and see the differnce in educations drastically. At CMU instructors are required to pass out surveys that allow you to rate the class. This assures that you are getting the best possible education unlike at a community college or other universtities where they allow instructors to stay on that have no real interest in teaching the subjects.
