Hello! I'm Jen and I'm a nursing student who also happens to be interested in physics. My knowledge in this field is extremely basic but I intend to learn more in the future. Physics was my first love back in high school but life never works out like you plan. I'm almost 30, divorced, a single mom, and becoming a nurse to support my family (also I like gross things and helping people). I plan on going back to school later on when I can afford it to get a degree in something physics-related. (I also love astronomy and own a couple telescopes.) So yeah, that's me. Thanks for having me. :biggrin:

Thread 'Just an enthusiast!'

Hello fellow Physics enthusiasts, I am an aeronautical engineering graduate (Bachelor's) who is interested in Physics and Mathematics, and I have been re-learning all the basics. I wanted to join a science forum, especially one dedicated to Physics and maths, to apply these subjects to my engineering studies. I hope to learn a lot through this forum. Thank you for your warm welcome.

Thread 'Introduction'

Hello! I am a recent graduate with a Bachelors of Science with a major in Mathematics and a minor in physics! I initially wanted to pursue advanced study in mathematics but taking some physics classes in my undergrad ignited an interest in physics for me! I am really interested in Particle and Nuclear Physics and hope to pursue a graduate study in said area some time in the future! Nice to meet everyone! I am happy to talk about physics with you all!
