Damn, don't believe it. They all confused the nuclear engineering profession with nuclear physics.
Let me tell you one by one which one has the least future.
The first is nuclear physics. Because there are too many empirical and semi-empirical formulas, they were studied a long time ago and therefore became a declining subject. What they are talking about is called nuclear engineering, it is not physics!
The second no future is high energy physics. CERN has already built the largest accelerator, so there is nothing more to study. Some academicians also said that these accelerators are currently in a period of transformation.
The hot topic of the moment is condensed matter physics. 1997, Nobel Prize in 2001.
The most promising are cold atoms, quantum optics, quantum computing and quantum information.
Majors related to physicse nuclear. After all, everyone has different interests. I recommend two engineering majors here, materials science and engineering and biomedical engineering.
The first reason is that
1. It is easy to publish scientific articles. Changing a sample and adjusting different proportions will produce different properties, which cannot be calculated by physics at present.
2. The perspective itself is very good. The domestic materials industry is relatively backward and needs development at all levels - materials have affected technological progress. Internationally, this is a problem that will never diminish in a few years.
3. The application is very broad. It is absolutely easy to make money doing engineering projects without doing any science.
Conclusions based on certain observations. For example, many teachers who worknt in other directions are also trying to engage with materials, such as the perspectives of some older people, and some knowledge, for example, that China cannot provide. carbon fiber, so the import price is US$10,000 per kilogram, but the cost is US$10, so I won't go into details.
The latter is because
1. The popularity of medicine is a trend of social development. If you look at the United States, you will know that medical schools are the most popular. As living standards improve, people are more willing to spend money on medical care.
2. Biomedical engineering involves manufacturing medical equipment, such as CT scans (the rate of diagnostic errors is extremely high at present), etc. Different doctors may have different conclusions about the disease, but medical equipment pemakes people feel more reliable and more scientific.
3. China is currently extremely behind. Last year, I attended a medical physics seminar and found that many people in China (including academicians) come from mechanical or electronics backgrounds and know very little about physical experiments, and also don't know much about pathology and other courses offered by Tsinghua Biomedical. The engineering is similar to that offered by the Department of Electrical Engineering. However, American biomedical departments offer many more medical courses: Medical equipment does not mean treating people like machines.
Summary in one sentence: I prefer chemistry/physics, studying materials; I prefer mechanics/electronics, studying medicine.
