So I'm going to graduate pretty soon with a bachelor's degree in physics and math. My grades are decent to average (about a 3.3-3.4 between the two of them). Since I was overseas for about five months studying a language I was (foolishly) too late to apply for graduate school to get a serious engineering degree but my physics professors said there was no cause for worry, and that many people bail out on engineering school since most introductory engineering jobs do not require a specific BS in engineering.

Do you guys think it's possible to score an engineering job? How about military?

lol don't ask me. I have a degree in math but work as an accountant but it pays the bills

A BS in math? If it pays the bills I'm all for hearing about it, seriously. You can hit me up with a PM if you don't want to spread details. I'm just in panic mode because I've never had a serious job that wasn't in construction.
Also I'm surprised you don't have a degree in physics since you seem to be fluent.

the physics degree will probably correlate a lot with mechanical engineering. with grades like that you can land or at least score an interview with a lot of jobs. hopefully you have some intership, research, or CAD experience.
to my understand math degrees follow more of math theory instead of math applications (which is what physics degrees are), but i dont really know enough about math degrees to apply them to job opportunites

check out the boeing site for physics stuff. idk what state youre in, but they always have openings

That's a good suggestion I think, thanks.
I'm going to have to pirate some cad software or find a google/linux variant. Had tons of experience with it in high school because I took some drafting and welding classes but none recently.
I remember I wrote somewhere on this site like two years ago that I was triple majoring and some forum goers said it was impossible. Not only is it possible to get three degrees in four years, but you can feasibly do it while getting drunk once or twice a week if you bust your ass enough. Wish I could remember who said it but it doesn't really matter anymore. Thanks again.

With physics and math you're probably very logic-oriented. You can probably apply to the types of programming jobs that financial institutions specifically hire people for that are recent grads.

you want use skills for military field of science? is ok if you think you like it and pays well plus learn more....Your skills may help people though if you go into free energy field of science....my cousin is a engineer but top of his class..soo far I am the only dropout lol Fuku
