    Finding a Job After College: Advice for a Physics Graduate

    I think this is a pretty helpful response for me. Some of the things I have been doing. Part of my issue is my network. I'm from Colorado, went to school in Iowa, and ended up down in Austin to be near my girlfriend (now fiancé), so my network is lacking, and I know that. However, I do not know...

    Finding a Job After College: Advice for a Physics Graduate

    With learning the languages, do I have to prove taught experience or can I simply learn the language on my own? For example, my understanding of SQL is very rudimentary, but I can easily spend some of my free time learning the language so that I can have more success later on. However, will the...

    Finding a Job After College: Advice for a Physics Graduate

    My only experience with writing code is HTML, though learning a programming language seems pretty easy. It is proficiency within the programming that I am not up to par with. I have applied to over 100 jobs, none of them are biting. Every time it is the lack of experience conundrum for getting...

    Finding a Job After College: Advice for a Physics Graduate

    I graduated in 2014 with a B.A. where I studied both Physics and Spanish, and I was a few classes away from a Mathematics minor. In college I also played baseball and worked as a RA for all four years, which led to me not doing internships but I worked odds and ends jobs such as tutoring, golf...

    How Do Eigenvalues Relate to Quantum Mechanics and Classical Physics?

    Hey guys, another question: I don't get quantum numbers. No, I am not talking about n, l, s, ml, and ms. I am talking about L, S, ML, MS, and J. These are related to quantum states for many electron atoms and electron spectroscopy. I have a quiz over that tomorrow (term symbols) as well as...

    How Do Eigenvalues Relate to Quantum Mechanics and Classical Physics?

    Hey all, I am learning about Quantum Mechanics right now and I have a few questions: 1. First off, can someone verify eigen functions and values for me. Why are they important and what exactl do they do? 2. How about is it possible when accounting for the 3rd postulate of quantum mechanics...

    Physics and Baseball, relating the two

    Hey everyone. I've asked a few questions before here, but now I have one not related to my homework or career possibilities. It may be a little difficult. I am a baseball player and I know classical mechanics and kinematics. However, this question is beyond that. I am trying to find a way to...

    What can you do with a Physics degree after college?

    I have basic computer skills available, am proficient in all microsoft products, some html, and some C#. I'm more proficient in computer hardware than software but I know how to learn programming languages relatively easy. Rolen, why do you say I must get a PhD? Astronuc, thanks.
