We have already seen topics on this forums discussing Physics degree as education and not job training, and that some physics graduates do get jobs but not necessarily as physicists, and that physics majors need to take a selection of practical courses to become marketable; and that internships and research experiences are important.
Now I ask, WHO is paying for the research which physics professors and their graduate students do? Do those funding suppliers expect to gain something in return? Are the funding suppliers, government departments and private businesses who want some further knowledge to use for the understanding or for their design potential?
