In addition to getting post-graduate degrees (42% PhD, 23% terminal MS), some have used skills obtained as physics majors to get jobs in web development and computer programming. Our alumni have jobs at the EPA, DOE, tech companies, and as university faculty. Physics majors can use their experience with technology, computer programming, and instrumentation to get jobs as engineers.
