What do you think are the future growth industries with the greatest growth rate/ potential for applications in the area of physics? Anyone working in optics/photonics? Biotechnology? Any other field?
Thank you for pointing this out. It is correct that I have to know exactly where the differences are before I can decide what path to take.
At this point I am quite interested in applications of photons/light, lasers to real world problems but I don’t know if this kind of work will be...
Thank you for the answers thus far.
@SophusLies (cool name btw): This is good advice - one of my problems is that I don't know what one actually does in different kinds of research; asking the professors themselves or some of their students is something I will keep in mind.
@ZapperZ: Yes...
I am in the process of choosing the topic for my thesis. Originally I came from a more theoretical branch of physics but I realized that I do not see my future in university research, but more in the industry. I want to do research with more direct applications, but now I am not sure what my...
