not very good baru go there ma.. hahaha.. STPM i'm taking.. haha.. icic, well depending on the course you are interested. Environmental science i would say the job demand is there la as long as you dun choose job. I would encourage you to take until phD la.. cause this is a science course, if you want good pay in few years time, phD is the way, no need to study very hard.. just study smart and hard will do.. =)) enjoy the process only then eventually you will get the good results.. =)

As i have mentioned, food science you can go into research of those private companies. Big companies like nestle, kraft, kelly's ingredient, mamee, dutch lady and etc, they do take fresh graduates of food science into their company either by management trainee or nutritionist. BUT, there will always be a BUT. For those big food and beverages company, the fresh graduates will face a very stiff and strong competition among themselves, cause they dun take much fresh grads. So normally those with first class will get a chance with them. of course some companies will look at your soft skills and communication skills as well. Food science have a slightly disadvantage against someone who took nutritionist.

Very rare company does food research in Malaysia, even it does, its more to manufacturing purposes. Therefore, you may stay in the university to do your masters and phDs. UPM is quite good with their food course. I would say one of the best in Malaysia. UMS is picking up cause there are alot of skilful lecturers there.

Many of friends came out from food science, took their MBA, some found job in food and beverages industry and some of course become a salesman as your friend's son did. Trust me, food and beverages is a big field, if they do not choose jobs, they can find a job with their degree. Many ppl failed to do so cause normally food and beverages job is kinda tough and busy. They will always have business even downturn. haha.. =)
