The atmosphere is extremely team oriented, so there are always collegues to work with and to bounce ideas off of. I learn a lot not only about my project but also about other projects in development at the company as well as the overall process of drug discovery and development. I think the most important thing I have learned is that there is more than one path to take as a science major. Not everyone gets a Ph.D. and not everyone goes to graduate school. Some people go straight from a Bachelor's to an advanced degree, while others take some time off before going back to school.
Some people know exactly what they want to do and some change their minds.
There are many ways to reach your personal goal, and there are many ways to achieve success. I think people should know it's OK to change majors, and it's OK to be undecided for a while. I never would have thought that I would get a M.S. in Botany and end up in an Enzymology department brushing up on my biochemistry. Whether you choose academia, government, or private industry, there are so many opportunities in the world and so millions of ways in which you can make a difference in society. If I were to go back and do college all over again, I wouldn't change very much.
