    Physics Summer Opportunities for Second Year Students?

    I just finished my first year in chemical engineering and I am making the switch to a double major in math/physics next year. I'm going to a mid-sized school in Canada. What kind of research opportunities are there for me after I complete my second year next summer? What kind of interships are...

    Are Physics Careers in Canada Viable?

    I'm torn between these three degrees and honestly it's hard to know what these degree will actually get you into. For those of you who work in these fields: what do you ACTUALLY do on a day-to-day basis? What's a list of things you do on the job during a typical day? The reason I ask is that a...

    Engineering Physics or Engineering after high school?

    I am really hoping someone will be able to give some advice on this because this decision is very stressful. I will be graduating high school in a couple of months and need to make a decision as to what I want to study in university. I have always loved science and math and have taken a...
