Where have the men gone and why? 50 years ago the numbers were essentially reversed.
As one writer commented, one of the most dangerous things in the world is a young man with no job, no...
In graduate school, is it possible to enroll in courses even though one is not doing their phd in that subject ? So can a math phd student take physics graduate courses ? Also, does the math phd student have to formally satisfy the prerequisites for that physics course. Let's say he/she wants to...
Hi all! I'm an undergrad sophomore in engineering trying to decide on which major to pursue (namely civil/mechanical). Recently I came across this fascinating piece of publication, which contained a massive amount of data regarding engineering enrollments by major, demographic, and school...
Hi people,
This is the first time I am writing a letter to a professor about my enrollment into their MS program. i have already completed a draft with my cgpa, current thesis, research interest etc.
Now do I write the whole detail in the body of the email or i make a doc file and attach it...
I've decided to learn programming in my holidays. And I've enrolled myself in a C programming class (Apparently they don't allow C++ unless you know C). The course requirement says familiarity with "programming techniques" I tried searching it but I din't get the meaning I just got various...
I am writing about some crazy hypothesis I have about the impact the quest for the Higgs Boson, thereafter designated as HB, might have had on the number of people who declared physics majors during the years following its discovery. The preliminary data I have concerns two universities in my...
Hello there, I'm a Undergraduate student of Physics from India. Recently I came across information regarding joining PhD programmes directly after completing undergraduate courses in Tata Institute of Fundamental Research. Frankly speaking, I didn't know it was possible. Now, since I solemnly...
Since some of you are high school students and may be contemplating it, I just wanted to share my opinion - don't do it unless the grades are perfect! If I could go back and change anything about high school, it would be NOT doing this. I took a bunch of classes in 11th grade and got credit from...
In the Chronicle of Higher Education yesterday... "Arizona State University plans to lay off at least 200 non-tenure-track faculty members in the coming months, a move that could push some lecture-style classes to enrollments of 1,000 students."...
I know some undergraduates who are taking graduate level courses at my school. Do you think it's a good a idea for me to take a graduate level class in order to understand more about my current research? BTW, the class I am considering is taught by my research advisor, and the subject concerns...
help required from your exprience.
I consider my self quite a good physicist (I can think clear)
I really love Relativity (specially Special-Relativity.) I am good at maths (if it involves things that I do in physics class.)
I also like Astronomy (which in a way involves SR).
Unfortunatly...
