Searching for PhD Opportunities in Physics Abroad

[drjack]

I am currently a first year Master student in theoretical particle physics in Iran. I am planning to apply for PhD outside Iran and preferably in US, Canada or UK. I am also considering some European countries such as Sweden and Denmark in mind, because of having relatives there. Bu t I am totally confused and don't know where to start my investigations and what to do. I was wondering if you guys can help me?

Iran? and particle physics? Just make sure to not stray off to the nuclear side of things, if you get my drift. Especially, if you plan on coming to the US as they may become suspicious ;)

LOL, dude I am totally theoretical. By the way there is no direct connection between my field of study and nuclear power stuff.

well, if I did know what is going on with getting MSc on physics in Iran a couple of years ago, frankly speaking, I wouldn't waste my time continuing it. That is my opinion after all.

If you are interested to continue your PhD in US try to take your GRE (general and subject) also if you are intending to continue your MSc, try starting your project pretty soon and do your best to publish a paper and strengthen your scientific resume.

Good Luck!

I say that it is not enough just to study in America. You must be motivated to grow. Just try. Everything is resolved.
