Over what field I'm going to choose

[QUOTE="Orodruin, post: 5925807, member: 510075"] It is difficult to generalise, but typically your prospects of earning more money will be greater outside of academia. To be honest, what you study will most likely have very little impact on what jobs outside of academia that you might get unless you are looking for something very specific. It is usually not exactly what courses you have taken that are going to make you an attractive employee. In physics you are usually not training for a particular job outside of academia, you are studying to get a job based on your analytical skills and critical thinking. That job may entail many other things where those qualities are important. To believe that you will get a job exactly related to what you studied is probably a bit naive. [/QUOTE]
