AI Thread Summary
Working part-time in a science-related field during undergraduate studies can provide valuable experience and help cover living expenses. Tutoring is highlighted as a lucrative option, offering around 15 euros per hour with flexible hours. Alternatively, positions like working in a physics lab may pay less, around 9 euros per hour, but offer significant hands-on experience that can be beneficial for future career prospects. Balancing pay and experience is a key consideration for undergraduates seeking part-time work in science.

I think it'll be good if when i am an undergrad and i can work at least in some kinda science related field part time to pay the bills (during the holidays). What "career" options are there and how good is the pay and working hours usually?

Well, my sister is just working at the physics lab, doing the dirty work/making sandwiches for the grad students :D lol. She is making 9 an hour. She is getting experience though which is worth more than the extra money you would get somewhere else.
 

Thread 'Self Learning Math/Physics'

Hey, I am Andreas from Germany. I am currently 35 years old and I want to relearn math and physics. This is not one of these regular questions when it comes to this matter. So... I am very realistic about it. I know that there are severe contraints when it comes to selfstudy compared to a regular school and/or university (structure, peers, teachers, learning groups, tests, access to papers and so on) . I will never get a job in this field and I will never be taken serious by "real"...
