If I had to pick a career between a ‘computer network engineer’ and ’satellite communications engineer’?

Mk asked:

After I complete the degree I can either take things like CCNA MCSE and get into the networking field.
Or follow a MSc in RF engineering and become a satellite engineer.

Considering the future job market and pay what would you recommend?

pretty sure satellite communications will give you the best pay in the long run - however you may have to start at the bottom and work your way up you know? this might not be the case with the networking. there will undoubtedly be a job market in both these fields in the future, so i don’t think that should sway your decision much

i would personally go for the satellite communications - better pay ;)
good luck. xx

My guess is that satellite engineer would require more on-site and hardware work than a network engineer, so it depends upon if you prefer office work or field work.
