To become a scientist you'll need to be well specialised in mathematics. Scientists in the physical sciences use a great deal of mathematics, particularly algebra, calculus and analytical geometry, while those in the biological sciences use math less often. All scientists need a working knowledge of statistics, too.

While you will specialize in a particular discipline later, you'll need to take basic courses in biology, chemistry and physics to ground you in the basics of each science, as well as the scientific method of observing, making hypotheses and experimenting. You can also select elective courses based on areas of interest or to discover new areas of interest to help you define your specialty. In a year or two, you can commit to a more specific branch of science.

Skills in one or two foreign languages may be helpful as well, in order to read older scientific papers that haven't been translated into English. The most helpful languages to learn include French, German and Russian.

To do major in a more specific branch of science you can choose Planetary, Medical, Psychological, Geneticist or Agricultural.

Do your internship in college, you can go to graduate school, Participate in a post-doctoral program, continue researching and seek out full-time employment.

All the best!!
