It depends on what you think, because my parents are from colleges and universities, and my dad is a senior engineer. He has the same qualifications as a professor, but his profession is different. My father is engaged in technology and mechanical engineering. He is similar to a teacher in a mechanical college, but one is in administration and the other is in technology.
Professors in colleges and universities are guaranteed and popular, and their incomes are guaranteed despite droughts and floods; lawyers have many foreign affairs, high incomes and high risks. Of course, some companies hire law professors as consultants. That's another situation. I don’t know if you are looking for a partner or a future job. Anyway, I prefer colleges and universities because they are stable.
