Think about the possibilities:
- Physicists are employed by industry, business, education and government.
- Physicists can perform applied research in hospitals and clinics.
- In educational and federal institutions, physicists perform fundamental research.
- Physicists tend to be generalists and can find jobs in apparently unrelated fields,
such as software development and electrical engineering.
