In many cases physicists try to related pressure studies of Tc to doping of different materials. When doping of different materials it can stretch or squeeze the unit cell to change the electronic properties of the material. One thing that you have not discussed is at what pressure would the...
I am in a smiliar situation. In my second year of grad school trying to decide if I want to get a masters and head into industry or stay around and get a PhD.
I have heard other people say similar things that Wildman said, but I was wondering if anyone could elaborate any on that subject. Is...
I have always been interested in applying the newest scientific advancements to current problems, more applied physics that fundamental science. Is that what you mean I could do working in industry with only a masters?
And yes, Academia meant having a PhD and working as a professor doing...
Thanks for the response.
rjemerson, you said that they always ask you "You know that industry is a lot different from academia, right?". Is this just implying that academia is more focused on fundamental science, whereas industry is more focused on application and an end product?
Hi everyone,
I am planning on going into industry and I was wondering what would be the difference between getting a job with only a masters in physics vs getting a job with a PhD in physics. With a masters can I only be a lab monkey? Or can I eventually start running my own research...
