>Its World War 3
>YOU have been selected to work in your government's scientific research division
Where would you fit in /sci/?
>>8734888
>tfw I already do
feelsgoodman
>>8734888
Assuming I graduate ? I'd be working in neurotechnologies and instrumentation, as well as maybe designing new materials.
Cartographic draftsman
>>8734894
Nanotechnology, I meant.
>>8734888
This just in gentlemen. In my newest paper I have proven that there is a bijection between our missiles and the german population.
Time to evaluate it.
>>8734898
Tbh it would be better if it were surjective but not injective
>>8734893
doing what?
Operations research.
>>8734888
Well, I'd have four PhDs and six bachelors by then.
>Physics PhD
>Mathematics PhD
>Nuclear Engineering PhD
>Chemistry
>Computer Science PhD
>Biology
What do?
>>8734888
Drones and guidance systems if I graduate. Also tons of electronics for almost everything.
>>8734902
Communications with submarines. This is a big problem. That's all I am supposed to say about it
>tfw topologist
>probably will end up cleaning the facilities or something
>>8734898
Holy kek this is good
>>8734917
>sir I have proven that all your proposed missile designs are in fact identical so long as they have the same number of holes
>>8734888
Nothing because
1. My government is shit and probably doesn't even have a research division
2. I'll never graduate, but even if I did:
i) The government would hire family/political allies/voters
ii) My major is in geosciences
iii) I'm in horrible health, both physical and mental
So just fucking bring it on and nuke that shit.
>tfw you're not even going to get directly nuked because you live in a shithole, you'll die of radiation poisoning several painful MONTHS later
I just can't win.
>>8734888
i build satellites(currently) but Id transition into director of stick sharpening and rock throwing towards the end of the war
>>8734888
time to mengele their shit up
>>8734927
heeeeeeey same. What contractor? Maybe I know you
>>8734941
Not even memeing, I studied pure math but had comp sci internships every summer and programming jobs during the year. I don't touch hardware so I'm probably not the right guy to ask
I'm a human test dummy
Weeeeeee
>>8734943
I'd love to do pure math, but I'm not sure of the job prospects with simply that.
>>8734888
Is there a Department of Doomsday Weaponry? Because if not, I'll start one.
>>8734955
Thanks for the information.
I'm sort of into antennas at the moment, mostly private projects fucking around with WokFi and cantenna.

Unit 731 revived, bioweapons department
>>8734888
Building an ironman suit.

BBC Research.
>behavioral neuroscientist
Not sure, I know there's a PI with DARPA funding at Cornell who does social behavior in gambian pouched rats since they can sniff out landmines without blowing them up. Only person within my broader field I've seen with DARPA money.
I imagine I could also fit in the PTSD labs, or a lab attempting to develop pharmacological manipulations to enhance soldiers or intelligence agents.
>>8734888
Head of the Meme Department
>>8735046
You're not really going to be head of anything.
You're not even an expert. You're just the average moron.
There are people that devoted years of their lives seriously studying hundreds of papers and textbooks to learn about memetics and how to use them to manipulate people. These people already exist and they're employed right now so don't count on that.
>>8734888
>implying i didn't already get that offer
>implying i didn't turn it down
the dudes who work in that field look like they've seen some shit. like million yard stare. no thanks.
>>8734888
Either control systems or rocket engines (hobby level, but I'm from a small country so am probably one of the few people who can do rockets)
>>8734888
Materials research, most likely ballistic armour type stuff
>>8734975
antennas can be super relevant ofc, but it helps to have a broad skillset
with that said, hobbyist experience is certainly helpful, especially if you're ambitious about it
from my experience, it can be harder to stay motivated working on my own, definitely consider joining a club (doesnt have to be a school one, could be a meetup or a makerspace)
>>8734888
>apply for job
>Wait months, contact, wait months again, contact again, get up to 6 month interval w/ no contact, get call again
>when they actually do contact me its from an unknown number
wtf is with the government
>tfw undergrad
I can calculate max min and projectile trajectories with linear drag.
>>8734888
I can lend y'all my arduino.
I wasn't using it anyway. ;_;
Antibiotic/vaccine research probably
>>8734888
The legal department writing your contract so your family never knows what you do and they never get a penny when you inevitability die in some bizarre test.
But if i wasnt a lawyer some sort of rocketry research would be cool i guess

Only plebs would deal with this type of warfare. My special skill set that any government on the planet would kill for is the knowledge and craftsmanship I have of the Katana. Yeah that's right, Japan almost won WW2 because they had katanas on there side bitch!!!

There are weapons that are literally classified as 'doomsday weapons'.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Pluto
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supersonic_Low_Altitude_Missile
>It uses an engine that uses nuclear reactions to heat the air for thrust instead of the regular continious explosive burn of fuel/air. By doing this, it irradiates the air and leaves behind radioactive particles.
>It also has 14 nuclear bombs that it ejects verticaly and combined with its great speed, those nukes can travel far from the missile itself. Not only is it fast, it can travel at mach 3.5 at around 300 meters, also destroying things on the ground by the very powerfull sonic boom.
>After it crashes, it will turn the crash site into a no-go area for thousands of years.
>>8734898
>Both surjection and injection
>Not only do we have a missile for every German, but each missile has a specific target
>>8734888
Tortur...enhanced interrogation.
>Double major in Robotics/Biotechnology
>Minor in Theology
Unpaid internship in some no-name bureaucratic department.
>>8735214
Yeah I'm probably going to go for satelite image analysis/GIS.
>>8735333
Kek's weapon of choice
>>8735063
He'll be head memer one day, you'll see.
>>8734917
Nah, even worse - ballistics.
>tfw human test subject
cryptanalysis
>>8735064
Did you initially acquire your education through a military college? I can't see the military reaching outwards for applicants.
>>8737886
i had an internship with a company that had government contracts and got a security clearance out of it.
>>8734888
Bereau of memetic warfare, praise kek
I can make boutique transgenic plants.

I would fix the air conditioning in the facility.

You know the Nazi medical researchers that worked out of concentration camps to document the traits of untermensch and conduct pseudo-science to justify the war?
That's me.
Majoring in pharmacy so probably pharmaceutics.
>>8734915
I am also doing this. Neat.
>>8734888
Well, I'm a geologist so I guess I work in the mineral and resources exploration division.
Microbiological bioterrorism maybe. If not that, just medical microbiology.
