Serious life question.

So I've been looking at getting a degree in Commercial Space Operations and transferring from my school to Embry Riddle for it.

Is this something worth getting? I know that commercial space is booming and I do have a great interest in it.

Would this be a good way to get into commercial space exploration?

Check out the Air Force's space operations job. Pretty much guaranteed to get a job in the private sector or a cushy government job because of the work experience and Top Secret clearance.

I live near JSC and while I don't work for a JSC or related contract (or sub-contract) I know many people who do. You could easily get in around here with a degree like that - Jacobs, SpaceX, Boeing, USA, Lockheed to name some big ones and then many, many small businesses. Double that up with Aero/Mech engineering and you have it made.

I don't know about the military route, I have an apointment with a shrink soon about depression stuff. I think I'm depressed but it might be a result of me staying at the current school I'm in.

Also, I cannot transfer until this winter and I will be a junior. I'm majoring in philosophy (focus on logic) and I'm going to start a math and public administration double major this upcoming year.

If I transfer, I probably will have to spend an extra year or two in school to pick up mech engineering.

I was also thinking about starting my own company after graduating but I don't know if that would be feasible.

Shameless self bump for more input

looks like a bullshit degree to me. STEM or go home, seriously.
Go ahead and search for a job, anything, use google or monster, any reputable job search website. Do you see any posting for the degree you are about to get in to ? What if you fail to land a job out of college, you will have to use these job searching websites to get a job. I am 100% sure that you are able to get in to the working field with a STEM degree... Do more research OP selecting a degree is a big thing and having to change it surely is a rock inside your eye. I ended up going for CE but my love is in EE, Junior now and it is not a good idea to change now.
