Physics Realistic to switch from atomic to nuclear or high-energy theory?

Click For Summary
The discussion centers on the feasibility of transitioning from atomic theory to nuclear or high-energy theory, particularly in the context of moving from academia to industry. The original poster is looking for non-defense job opportunities that involve solving scattering or wave-like problems. However, the lack of additional information about their background and specific goals limits the potential for tailored advice. To receive more relevant responses, it is suggested that the poster provide details about their experience and objectives.

Thread 'Career Prospects (outside of academia)'

For some background, I'm currently a 3rd year physics major with an astro specialization studying in Canada, and as undergraduates are want to do I'm regularly evaluating my career prospects down the road. I also plan on pursuing grad school when I've completed my degree. It might just be my anxiety acting up a little, but with a lot of the government funding drying up for public science research broadly in the US, the 'industry' everyone keeps talking about when questions like this are...
