Go to where corporations that are technology centered are located. Austin for example, look at the semiconductor companies, search their job listings. Many of the jobs will have flexible education requirements, requiring a B.S. degree in engineering, computer science, math or a related science. They may not explicitly say physics, but they will be more than willing to consider a physics B.S. for the positions.

I know someone with an undergrad Physics degree from Southern. She does project management, Process Improvement, and Six Sigma type of work. She used to work for NASA and Nissan. Now she works for a major hospital system.

My aunt's brother has one. He works for IBM, out in Austin. Been there for thirty years.
I don't know if that's still a possibility, though.

I had a temp in my office with a physics degree. He would get the mail and refill the coffee machine. He was decent at it. That's all I got.

has anyone said Gaston yet? If not, just so everyone knows, he is the smartest person in this thread

Good friend went through this program and makes a very good living for himself; with a master's degree. Plenty of job opportunities in this specialization.

Sounds absolutely awful

One of my f r at brothers got a degree in physics. He's a M.D. now.

I got my degree in physics (UT Austin) and used the software development skills I gained to get a solid career in ERP consulting. Probably do much better than I would have had I stayed in physics.

My brother in law has a Masters in Physics. He is managing the cleanup job at Carlsbad New Mexico. It it a big project. He makes $$$.

I got my Physics BS from LSU.
Went on to get PhD at U Maryland.
I now do Radar (design, build, develop algorithms, etc...). Not what I studies in grad school!
We consider Physics to be one of the best degrees when hiring.
You generally get really smart people who like to really understand the stuff they are working on.

Up at Wallops? I've been traveling up there to work on Pad 0A and almost all of the scientist I meet work radar. I haven't met you at Chatties have I?
