So You Want To Get an Astronomy/Astrophysics Degree

Ғылым және технология

This is what you can expect if you decide to pursue astronomy or astrophysics at university. I started off as an astronomy major so know a lot about the degree program and what it involves. Check out my video about why I decided to major in physics/math instead: • Why I majored in physi...
I still think astro is a great choice if it interests you more.

    For all the people who are stressing because they aren’t good at something I’ll give you a little information. I was once failing many of my maths and science courses because I was horrible at math , so I thought. I simply changed my thought of mind and began studying and preparing on my own time because it was something I generally wanted .

    Great video. I find it really inspiring and informative. Astronomy has always been a passion for me but never got the chance to get into it. I currently work in IT but I am at a point in my life that I would love to change careers. I hold a bachelors in electronics engineering, a M.Eng with major in telecommunications, and a PhD in network engineering. I am considering in doing a master's degree in Astronomy next. As I can't really afford to be a full time student at the moment, I was thinking in pursuing an online master degree (USQ seems to have a good one). Would I be able to obtain a postdoc or a research position in Astronomy? Or is it necessary to have a PhD in Astronomy? Thanks

If I would've caught your video even three months ago I might've turned my grades around in calculus this semester. Damnit. Well, it's worth a try next semester. I barely have acquaintances from the clubs I go to though, the prospect of making friends with people in math class is daunting but I have to try something differently.

    There aren't many MS programs in astronomy. It's mostly PhD programs from what I know. A lot of astronomy programs are starting to not require the physics GRE since it reveals very little about how well students conduct research. The general GRE should be pretty high though, with writing being the most important section. Hope this helps.
