Hi, I just found these forums and I'm very lost right now.
I actually have almost no background in the physics area but it has always intrested me. I've dabbled a bit into physics and quantum physics about a year ago and liked the way it explains how forces worked together to make events happen in every day life.
I registered here in hopes that someone can help guide me. Currently I'm taking courses to satisfy a degree in Professional Aeronautics, which seemed like a good idea at the time, but now I don't know if I would be happy or not getting this degree! I have absloutly no clue how to find out more information about getting for a degree in this field if you haven't guessed.
Things I'd like to know:
What elevctives and basics would I have to have to satisfy a degree?
What are the job opportunities like out there?
Is there a college that can award me a regionally acreditied degree that falls under the SOCNAV agreement?
Can anyone point me in the direction of someone that may have the answers to things like these?
Is this post in the right thread?
I do have more questions, but too many to post at the moment. Anyone that can at least get me rolling in the right direction will have a lot of gratitude!
Thanks for taking the time to read this mess, now I have to go withdrawl from my marketing class before it's too late.

University open days are generally the best times to find out that stuff, as they have all the information on hand, and you don't have to bother with making appointments. To do physics you'll need high school level physics and maths, and if you've done any phys/math units as part of aeronautics, then you should get advanced standing for them in physics so you don't double up. You could also use your aeronautics units that you've already done as electives, so you need to do less units. But this all depends on what Uni you apply for, and maybe even what country you're in. I only know how the system works in Perth, WA, and am assuming it's fairly consistent world-wide.
Hope that helps
EDIT: I just looked at the year for the original post!! I feel a little silly now hehe
