joint honours in physics and applied math
hello lovelies, i am going into honours next year and i was wondering if i should get a joint degree in applied math and physics (mind, all of this is subject to them letting me take an extra module next year that i missed out on this year).
I wasn't sure what sort of physics I was wanting to do when I came to uni, but my first thought was theoretical -- so when we were picking additional math modules, I took a pure math class in my first semester. well! shortly into the semester i realised, funnily enough, that i actually HATE pure math (ok fine, i couldn't actually hate *any* math, but comparatively that's where analysis lies on my heirarchy).
moreover, not only do i PREFER the calculus we're learning, i think i'm in love with it -- especially the class i have this semester, which i decided to take over another pure module.
i thought it'd be fine to mix things up since it's not like i'm doing a joint honours with maths, right? except, now i'm sitting here in bed thinking about all the ways that applied math and physics work together, both in school and in the world of work, and even though i know that my pure MPhys degree on its own will probably be just as useful, i just really really like applied math classes...
just want people's thoughts!
