So, I am very sure I want to study astrophysics. Ideally, I would become a researcher, but I know that this is extremely unlikely. However, I also know that I would always regret it if I didn't try. But, understanding how unlikely this is, I want to be prepared. Is there any way to study other subjects (electrical engineering, computer science, or another branch of physics would all be interesting) concurrently in a way that would be attractive to industry employers?
I am OKAY with starting my career at an entry level job if I decide to leave astrophysics. I'm not viewing the phd as an investment, but rather an experience and opportunity. Money shouldn't be an issue so long as I'm making at least an entry level salary when I start my career. I just want to know if it's possible to do this.
