Hi everyone, In the past when I was doing my undergrad in physics, I sometimes looked at this page for inspiration in research. However, I was unable to find a similar one for applied geophysics. Currently, my area of research is exploration non-seismic geophysics, where the focus is on near...

Curious to know why...

Title says it all. I am interested in studying the physics complex systems and nonlinear physics, however i find it very hard to find a good program as it seems this area of study is not the most mainstream of them. I found out about Max Planck but still want to know if there are other strong...

Thank you for your valuable insights.

Thanks for the advice. I have already done two semesters of quantum mechanics, but I guess taking a third would ensure I'm more prepared.

Thank you for the advice!

I see. Thanks for the advice!

Again, I'm not looking to hear "what I like" and you are making that assumption again! That would be pointless. Seeking the advice of more people doesn't mean that you are ignoring the advice of others. I already looked at the graduate curriculum at these schools and it seems that my...

I already have a decent background in quantum and won't be "squashed". The reason why I am not sure about my professor's advice is that this is the first time I am hearing such a thing and need to talk to more people in the field to have a better understanding of the situation. I won't base my...

sorry about the confusion. The schools I have in mind offer a very similar curriculum with the only difference being an extra course in quantum mechanics.

Yea but I still don't know if this assumption about these schools is reliable.

don't get me wrong. I am not trying to be validated (that would be a waste of time). I only talked to this prof about admissions so far and planning to talk to other ones as well. But in the meantime, I thought it could be a good idea to just hear current/past grad students or professors' views...

Hi All!, Hope you are doing well. (Grad admissions related) I recently talked to a Professor of mine about my course work in 4th year of undergrad (Physics). My aim is to try my luck and apply to the 15 top programs in North America (Ivy's etc.). With this in mind, my prof strongly suggested...

Hi all, Hope you are safe and doing well. I was having a conversation with a friend of mine about the field of medical physics and its outlook. He seemed to like the field and was impressed by its career prospects. However, one worry he had was automation, in this case, it replacing the role...

Hi all, Hope you are all safe and doing well. I recently made a decision to potentially move to the states permanently. I am currently in my fourth year of undergraduate degree in physics at a Canadian university (3.82 cGPA, 3.96 in major) and interested in a career in medical physics. For this...
