The disciplined approach to problem-solving developed by the study of physics is particularly valuable for students entering high-tech fields, business, medicine and the law.
Other physics grads have continued into graduate study either in physics or in a physics-related area such as biophysics, engineering, oceanography or atmospheric science. Others have pursued options as varied as theological school, a career in business, graduate study in philosophy, or hotel management.
