Programs Can I do graduate degree in Physics after undergrad in econo

AI Thread Summary
Pursuing a graduate degree in physics after completing a bachelor's in economics is feasible, especially with a strong GRE score. To prepare for this transition, it is essential to study foundational physics courses typically included in an undergraduate physics curriculum. These courses cover essential topics such as classical mechanics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, and quantum mechanics. Additionally, gaining research experience is crucial for graduate school applications, as it demonstrates practical skills and a commitment to the field. Engaging in self-study or enrolling in relevant courses will help build the necessary background in physics to succeed in graduate studies.

All of the courses that are taught in an undergrad physics education. You will also need research experience to get into graduate school. This is why undergrad exists.

Thread 'Self Learning Math/Physics'

Hey, I am Andreas from Germany. I am currently 35 years old and I want to relearn math and physics. This is not one of these regular questions when it comes to this matter. So... I am very realistic about it. I know that there are severe contraints when it comes to selfstudy compared to a regular school and/or university (structure, peers, teachers, learning groups, tests, access to papers and so on) . I will never get a job in this field and I will never be taken serious by "real"...
