Hey physics undergrad here.

Idk if this belongs in /adv/ or not, but I was talking to my profs and they said that in physics if you don't plan on going for PhD (which I am) then you've wasted your undergrad. They also said that a really popular job for people in physics while they're in grad school is teaching high school. Is this true? If it is, is it that bad?

Yes. If you go to any employer they'll tell you you need at least a master's in physics to be a chad. Its literally the only accurate portrayal of physics in all of the big bang theory.

If you're lucky, you can find a finance or engineering job with just a bachelor's but you're competing with other majors then. You can also teach high school with a bachelor's if you become certified.

Is that smart at all to do teaching while in doctoral school or is it waste of time putting me behind on Industry experience

>>9165034
Guys I know in grad school are either doing research or industry work. My long term plan is teaching tho it sounds p good

See teaching at a high school level isn't really what I want to do but a few faculty members were talking like it was inevitable.

Yes, there are a few areas where you can work without a PhD in physics, but they'll be like Medical Physics - either software or hardware applied, and you'll probrably need a more technical specializations, but they are cool areas nontheless
