Study to become a scientist (Physics-Edition) (Long topic)

[BLΔCK⁂W⊙LF]

so grad school for a phd? then what? Industry?

Yes. That or I will try to teach at an HBCU.

I'm going to try some of these. I'm going for a comp sci degree, so I will try.

I think you should try to read "How to Prove It". It will help greatly in getting you into thinking more logically and structurally. Not exactly like if...elseif....while...etc., but it is a good introduction to discrete mathematics.

Do you think I'd would be beneficial to me as a mechanical engineering student to have a physics minor? I believe I only need 2 or 3 more classes to have one.

Mechanical engineering is a diverse field, so it may depend on what you are going into career wise. But I don't know, so I'd suggest talking with your advisor.

This is some powerful stuff OP and it didn't get nearly the amount of rep & credit it deserved. I recently saw a documentary on Netflix about Genetic Engineering and have been obsessed with studying more about it. I attempted to learn about Physics a while back but got too busy with work.
What have you been able to do with your degree? Assuming you work as a scientist

Now this is a thread i can get behind

I wish someone talked to me about this How to Prove it Book a couple years ago I'm going to cop

Is abstract/modern algebra useful for graduate level physics?
