How Can I Combine Computer Science with Physics in My Education?

I found this forum while looking for information on computer science subfields. I just finished my first year as a computer science major (second bachelors degree) at a tiny LAC in the deep South. Besides CS, I also have a high interest in science, especially physics/astrophysics. However, my school doesn't have a physics major or minor, so doing either along with CS isn't an option (my school only offers the one year sequence that satisfies pre-med and health professions prerequisites).

As I've now been exposed to quite a few CS courses and started thinking about how to combine CS with science I'm realizing that I need to transfer. Besides the lack of physics, my school doesn't have undergraduate research opportunities, has no relationships with industry for internship opportunities, has no tech recruiters during job fairs, and the list goes on. I didn't know any of that before arriving. The website, catalog, student handbook, etc were misleading.

So, you'll see me popping up and asking questions on the different subforums. I apologize in advance for any annoyances I cause. :biggrin:

Hello everyone, I was advised to join this community while seeking guidance on how to navigate the academic world as an independent researcher. My name is Omar, and I'm based in Groningen The Netherlands. My formal physics education ended after high school, but I have dedicated the last several years to developing a theoretical framework from first principles. My work focuses on a topological field theory (which I call Swirl-String Theory) that models particles as knotted vortex...
