AI Thread Summary
Graduate school options in Aerospace Engineering are being explored, particularly at Embry Riddle Worldwide campuses, with a focus on the Kanehoe campus in Hawaii due to its lower costs and appealing location. There is a concern regarding the credibility of degrees from these campuses, but it is noted that degrees will still be conferred under the Embry Riddle Aeronautical University name, which should maintain employer confidence. However, it is important to note that the Worldwide campuses do not offer engineering programs; their offerings are primarily management-oriented. For a complete list of available graduate majors and their respective campuses, prospective students can refer to the official Embry Riddle website.

I'm on the search for graduate schools, most likely in Aerospace Engineering (coming from a B.S. in Physics). I'm considering some of the Embry Riddle Worldwide campuses, particularly the Kanehoe campus in Hawaii. The cost is much cheaper compared to the main campuses and being in Hawaii sounds nice. Has anyone had any experience with any of the worldwide campuses? If so, would you recommend it? They say the degree will still say "Embry Riddle Aeronautical University" so it seems employers wouldn't doubt the credibility.

Engineering programs aren't offered through the Worldwide campus, loudog. Most of their majors are more management-oriented. You can view the listing of graduate majors we offer and the campus that offers them on this page: http://www.erau.edu/degrees/ma-degrees.html
 
I’ve been looking through the curricula of several European theoretical/mathematical physics MSc programs (ETH, Oxford, Cambridge, LMU, ENS Paris, etc), and I’m struck by how little emphasis they place on advanced fundamental courses. Nearly everything seems to be research-adjacent: string theory, quantum field theory, quantum optics, cosmology, soft matter physics, black hole radiation, etc. What I don’t see are the kinds of “second-pass fundamentals” I was hoping for, things like...
TL;DR Summary: I want to do a PhD in applied math but I hate group theory, is this a big problem? Hello, I am a second-year math and physics double major with a minor in data science. I just finished group theory (today actually), and it was my least favorite class in all of university so far. It doesn't interest me, and I am also very bad at it compared to other math courses I have done. The other courses I have done are calculus I-III, ODEs, Linear Algebra, and Prob/Stats. Is it a...
