Shameless Plug – Calling all Physicists!!
Writing about web page http://www.warwick.ac.uk/~phudcz/AlumniEvening.pdf
Calling all PHYSICISTS, this is relevent to YOU!!!
- How many of you know what you want to do after your degree?
- How many of you have gone to careers fairs to find they are are just full of
wankersbankers wanting to sit you behind a desk for the rest of you life doing something which totally wastes your 3 or 4 years of PHYSICS??? - Want to know what previous physics students went on to?
In that case, come along on Tuesday 21st (Week 8) to PLT between 7-9pm and listen to some guest speakers and talk to some of those previous students about what they are doing now!
The Physics SSLC along with WGA & Careers Service has done this specifically for you, not for the benefit of Barclays Bank.
The selection of possible speaker subjects include:
- Professor of superconducting engineering at Cambridge university
- Medical physicist using MRI scanners
- Beamline scientist for Diamond Light Sources Ltd
- Mathematical modelling and simulation for Rolls Royce
- Technology transfer and licencing for advanced materials and nanotechnology
- Applications engineer for telecommunications
- Lecturer of Computer Science at York University
- Manufacturing engineer
- Information engineer
- Royal air force
- Electricity and Gas engineer
- Computer consultant
- IT project manager
- Police constable
- Accounting and finance (we cant escape them completely)
It hasn't yet been finalised whos going to be talking, but its not all bankers for once. This event has been organised by physics students (including me) and you will probably notice shameless advertising around the department and emails!!
