Can anyone tell me what can of jobs I can get with just a B.S in physics? Also when I receive my B.S would you suggest working on for M.S and p.h.d or just going to work and get those later on?

Up to you. We cannot make any recommendations based on the little information you have provided.Also when I receive my B.S would you suggest working on for M.S and p.h.d or just going to work and get those later on?

A B.S (Bachelor of Science) in physics typically takes 4 years to complete and provides a foundation in the fundamental theories and principles of physics. An M.S (Master of Science) in physics usually takes 2-3 years to complete and involves more specialized coursework and research. A Ph.D (Doctor of Philosophy) in physics usually takes 5-7 years to complete and involves original research in a specific area of physics.
While a B.S in physics can lead to entry-level positions in various industries, many career opportunities in physics require an advanced degree such as an M.S or Ph.D. These degrees provide more specialized knowledge and skills, making individuals more competitive in the job market.
The duration of a Ph.D program in physics can vary, but on average it takes 5-7 years. This includes coursework, qualifying exams, and completing a research project and dissertation. The exact length may also depend on the individual's research progress and the requirements of their program.
Individuals with a Ph.D in physics have a wide range of career options in industries such as research and development, academia, government, and private sectors. Some common job titles include research scientist, data analyst, professor, and consultant. The job market for those with a Ph.D in physics is also expected to grow in the coming years.
Yes, both M.S and Ph.D programs in physics offer opportunities for students to specialize in a specific area such as astrophysics, condensed matter physics, or particle physics. This allows students to gain in-depth knowledge and expertise in their chosen field of study and can also lead to more specialized career opportunities.
