Switched major from Engineering to Physics

Featured Replies

I am going into my junior year have about 60 credits and decided to change to physics. It's Applied Physics with a concentration in Engineering. I just added another year of school onto my plate, but I am willing to do it.

 

Do you think it's a wise decision? I got a B in all four physics classes I've taken so far. I am having a hard time with Calculus 2, but I think I can pull it out.

 

Any advice? Im not sure where I can even get a job, but I want to do what interests me.

 

Thanks :)

If your passion is Physics, then you are answering you own question...

 

As far as work or a job...my guess is, that will be lined up long before graduation...Good Luck.

You may have a harder time of convincing some prospective employers, but a degree in physics basically says you are reasonably smart and like to apply those smarts as you solve problems.

I think you have chosen an interesting direction, really, and I think it's the kinda direction that pays back (a good job, and money), so I see no reason why this could be a bad decision at all!:)
