What job opportunities are available to someone who has a joint honours in math and physics (Bachelors Degree) besides teaching?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Here is the US (I'm making a guess based on the way you spelled 'honours'), there is a range of options. Depending on whether or not you have an experimental or theoretical bent, you could get a job for an insurance company (actuarial tables), financial company (quantitative analyst), or something in the fields of forensics, patent law, etc. etc.

None of these are physics or math jobs. If you want to pursue either as a career, you need to stay in school a while longer and get more training.
