Degrees in 3 different areas... Bad?

    Hi guys,

    Just finished my lvl8 degree in Biomedical Engineering, I have a lvl7 degree in mechanical and have applied for two masters-information systems for business performance and sustainable energy.

    My question is this, would it look bad to potential employers to have different degrees? Or would it make me look like a well rounded individual? Is it better to be a specialist or an all rounder?

    Cheers

    Do you have any professional experience? If your career has led you to do them, I wouldn't think there'd be much problem.

    Toes,
    you probably don't want to look like a permanent student! I reckon even some pro-bono/volunteer work might impress a potential employer that you are hungry for work and are prepared to roll up your sleves.
