Hi,
I am currently in my masters studying electrical engineering. I have joined a start - up in the field of education technology. Furthermore, I really like the idea and want to push it, but one big thing is bugging me.
While I love the idea, my true passion lies in technology. The thing is, I most likely won't start a tech start-up in this field in the near future because of the high entrance level for what I am interested in (Nanotechnology, that what I want to do requires years of fundamental research). My master only goes 3 Semesters, so I will finish pretty soon. The question is what to do?
My first idea is to do a PhD after my masters. While doing this I can on the one side still follow my passion, on the other side also work on the start-up. Would that work or do you think this is prone to fail?
Should I just leave ? Any advice on how to approach this?
