physics have become a very wide field of research study to point that scholars now have the option of specializing in any of the following areas...

1. geophysics
2. medical physics
3. nuclear physics
4. physics electronics
5. econo-physics
6. mechanical physics
7. astronomical physics
8. biophysics

that's the new level

But many of our aspirants find it difficult to understand... They believe that they will end up teaching

Mention any course and they will list a thousand careers for you. It usually starts with "you can work anywhere"
Someone have listed some of Physics branches:

1. geophysics
2. medical physics
3. nuclear physics
4. physics electronics
5. econo-physics
6. mechanical physics
7. astronomical physics
8. biophysics

Another person will come and list hundred careers in Physics. But, pause! Where are those jobs in Nigeria? How many per year if any at all.

Don't be deceived! Even in developed countries, some fields of study don't have good opportunities, how much more in Nigeria where there is no job for those that studied the so called lucrative courses?

Personally speaking, unless you have your personal target or you just don't care, don't fo for "theory courses" in Nigeria.

If you love Physics so much, go for engineering. Engineering is basically application of Physics and Mathematics.

This not to say that studying engineering is a guarantee of getting a job, story! However, the engineer has more opportunities (and wider areas he can fit in) compared to.

Advice from an engineering graduate who is crazy about Physics. Applied for Physics and Industrial physics (UniZik), but went back and changed it to Mechanical engineering (UNN). Using one stone to kill two birds.

you can use it do Masters Degree Information and communication Engineering in Uniport

Note that there is no problem physics graduate or other departments are facing in labour market that engerinng dept are not facing......... This is Nigeria play ur card well
