    Physics I currently am a physics major in college and I really want to fly.

    Have you considered the Military? Join Air Force or Navy as an Officer, apply to Flight School. If you are on the Top in Flight School, you likely will get your first choice of which aircraft you would like to fly. And once you get out of the service, I assume you won't have a problem...

    Sphere spins faster at poles/axis?

    I understand that you believe a High School Physics teacher would not say this but he did. I know exactly what he said, and we had a brief 3 minute conversation about the subject after school. His reasoning was because of the smaller revolution distance at the pole, it would have a greater...

    Sphere spins faster at poles/axis?

    Thanks Guys, I knew I was correct. And Whovian, my science teacher actually said that it was basic physics that Velocity =distance/time . I'll have too explain the reasoning to him, it feels really good to prove my teacher wrong. Thanks again.

    Sphere spins faster at poles/axis?

    My science teacher says that a sphere will spin at a greater speed at it's poles. He says that the equator would spin the slowest. He says it's basic physics that speed=distance/time. Poles have a shorter distance to make a revolution contrary to the equator therefore it would have a...

    Engineering B.Eng in Engineering Physics advice

    I wouldn't recommend doing it vice versa, simply because Mechanical Engineering is a broad study and you shouldn't have a problem finding a job if a problem occurs where you are not able to obtain your Masters. Get bachelors degree in Mechanical Engineering, where you will learn the basic...

    Engineering B.Eng in Engineering Physics advice

    Get bachelors in Mechanical Engineering. Get masters in Engineering Physics. Colorado school of Mines and Embry Riddle have solid Engineering Physics Master's programs.

    Engineering About engineering physicists (again)

    I think you should do Mechanical Engineering for Bachelors. Than look around for Engineering Physics Master's program.

    Engineering As an Engineer, will you just sit on your butt?

    Thanks for the heads up Guys. I just want to enjoy my job. I think I envisioned the wrong picture of what an Modern Engineer does on a daily basis. It's depressing to me, if I have to stare at a Computer Screen ALL DAY LONG. I want to design, build, test, and refine. But, that's certainly...

    Schools Respectable Aerospace Engineering Non-Ivy Schools.

    Well I have a 3.4 with Fairly good amount of AP classes and Good SAT/ACT Any more schools? Thanks

    Engineering As an Engineer, will you just sit on your butt?

    Rats! It's not looking to good for me. I always pictured engineering to be hands on with models and prototype objects that you test and evaluate. Not hands on keyboard and mouse! This is bad, really really bad. I haven't even started school yet, and I'm feeling bad about going into...

    Thanks! What was your G.P.A for admission?

    Thanks! I've never really paid attention to UW.

    Schools Respectable Aerospace Engineering Non-Ivy Schools.

    I was going to attend University of Cinncinatti for ME. But now I think I want to change my major to Aerospace Engineering. I recently found out that their AE program wasn't particularly "good". With my High School stats, I'm definitely not getting accepted to the top aerospace Engineering...

    Engineering As an Engineer, will you just sit on your butt?

    Thanks for Info! But I thought it would have been vice versa, in which I mean the older engineers are sitting in a chair more than the young fresh engineers. Man I'm really hoping that I won't be sitting at conference tables for hours discussing "stuff". My fantasy day for being an...
