SUMMARY

To become a string theorist, one must apply to a college or university and focus on studying mathematics and theoretical physics. Engaging in diploma work at a department specializing in string theory is crucial. The discussion emphasizes that all fields of physics explore the foundations of nature, including matter, forces, and energy. The path to becoming a string scientist is influenced by individual circumstances, such as age and career stage.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of advanced mathematics
  • Knowledge of theoretical physics
  • Familiarity with string theory concepts
  • Experience in academic research methodologies
NEXT STEPS
  • Research top universities with strong physics programs
  • Study advanced mathematical concepts relevant to physics
  • Explore introductory materials on string theory
  • Investigate academic research opportunities in theoretical physics
USEFUL FOR

Students aspiring to become string theorists, educators in physics, and anyone interested in the foundational aspects of theoretical physics.

i am at the point of deciding what to study. please can some body tell me what do i have to study to become a string scientist. is the string only field which deals with time space and mysteries of nature
 
Physics news on Phys.org
to become a string-theorist: Apply to collage/university and study lots of math and theoretical physics, and do your diploma work at a department that do reasearch in string theory.

It depends on how you define "mysteries of nature", all fields of physics study the foundations of our nature, Matter; forces and energy.

It also depends on how old you are, and where you are in your career. If you haven't applied to collage yet, do so and wait. First choose to study physics at a good university and do your very best, then see what happens and what you will become interested in the future.
