    Programs Physics vs Engineering for Solid State Research

    Yup, I think that's what I'm going to do. Thanks for your respond!

    Programs Physics vs Engineering for Solid State Research

    TBH, I'm still not sure whether I would want to specialize in experimental or theoretical in the future. Most probably I will be studying in the UK which not many school provides double major option. The point that concerns me the most is that I'm not sure whether I am able to handle the work...

    Sadly my university options don't provide such choice

    I am not very sure on this TBH, I think it varies from school to school. Will check on it when I have decided which course and school to apple for. Thanks

    Programs Physics vs Engineering for Solid State Research

    I appreciate your reply, it did provide me lots of information. From what I know, UK universities do not have as much freedom as US universities for electives courses. I think I will stick with a physics major as I don’t think I am ready to specifically decide which area of research I would want...

    Programs Physics vs Engineering for Solid State Research

    Yes, from what I saw, MPhys are generally cheaper. The reason I'm asking firstly is due to the specialization and the other reason is I'm curious whether doing a BSc in Physics will give me an easier transition to MSc in engineering if I really have to do so (TBVH I'm still slightly worried...

    Programs Physics vs Engineering for Solid State Research

    Thanks for the reply, this really helped a lot. I'm pretty sure I would want to get into research afterwards so physics will most probably be my route. Specifically for UK, do you recommend doing 4 years integrated MPhys? Are the any disadvantages doing one instead of BSc in Physics followed by...

    Programs Physics vs Engineering for Solid State Research

    For me I don't really have any preference on which country to work or do my grad school. I'm flexible to work anywhere including the US as long as there are opportunities there.

    Programs Physics vs Engineering for Solid State Research

    I definitely agree that having a bachelors is not enough for these positions. I'm just wondering whether the engineering route or the physics route will put me in a better place for these positions

    1) I'm an international student planning to study in UK 2) If things go well, I would definitely try to get a PhD 3) I think currently my first choice is to stay in academia but I can't be absolutely sure on this.

    Programs Physics vs Engineering for Solid State Research

    I'm going to apply for university and as any other student interested in physics, I'm stuck with the centuries old question, physics or engineering. I'm quite sure I will be going for grad school afterwards as I really liked doing research and stuff. I am yet to confirm on which field I'm most...
