    Switching from Optical/Ultrafast Laser Physics to Nuclear Physics

    Thanks for the advice. Anything directed toward the development of nuclear energy is what really interest me, although I wouldn't mind getting involved in particle accelerators and learning about those machines.

    Switching from Optical/Ultrafast Laser Physics to Nuclear Physics

    I recently received by Ph.D. in physics. Most of my physics experience is experimental work with optics, ultrafast laser science, laser plasma physics (relatively weakly ionized and atmospheric density plasmas), and RF and microwave experiments. However, I would really like to get involved...

    Engineering Physics Ph.D. Grad wanting to return to Aerospace Engineering

    A good plan. Unfortunately, most of my Aerospace Engineering professors I haven't seen in years, since I changed Universities after earning my M.S. in Aerospace Engineering. I have taken a few A.E. courses while earning my physics Ph.D., and I am in the process of looking them up, but they are...

    Engineering Physics Ph.D. Grad wanting to return to Aerospace Engineering

    I recently received a Physics Ph.D. but I had previously studied and earned an Aerospace Engineering masters degree. After spending several years earning my Ph.D. I have decided I would much rather practice Aerospace Engineering professionally. Unfortunately, I have had little success in...

    Physics Physicist Looking to Move from Optics/Lasers/EM to Nuclear Physics

    I am about to graduate with a physics Ph.D. My University is very strong in optics, photonics and electromagnetism, and even basic quantum mechanics (for topics like entanglement and solid state physics) but rather weak in nuclear physics. Thing is, nuclear physics has always fascinated me and...

    Is a Ph.D. in Aerospace Engineering necessary for designing aircraft?

    Thanks for the advice, it is quite helpful. At the moment, I am planning on getting a Masters with Thesis and then moving into physics and completing a Ph.D. there. But I will still be looking at various ways to learn more about Aerospace Engineering and get more expierience in that field as...

    Is a Ph.D. in Aerospace Engineering necessary for designing aircraft?

    No, I haven't had a chance to get involved in industry, all my research has been within the University. I have worked on aerospace systems design, which is what I mentioned above, and control systems. Overall, I have liked control systems better. I originally looked at aerospace systems...

    Is a Ph.D. in Aerospace Engineering necessary for designing aircraft?

    I will shortly be able to acquire a Master's degree in Aerospace Engineering. I am interested in designing aircraft as opposed to subsystems, but I am not enthusaistic about the various "system-of-systems" approach that essentially works to make new aero design codes(as opposed to new aero...
