AI Thread Summary
A bachelor's degree in civil engineering and a master's in structural engineering does not significantly increase the chances of securing a job in designing water rides, roller coasters, or theme parks, as these positions are scarce. The discussion highlights that opportunities in this niche are limited, suggesting that pursuing a career as a consulting engineer in related legal cases may offer better prospects, given the rapid growth in that field.
