So, yeah, I'm thinking that going after a PhD might be a useful thing to do now, preferably something related to nuclear physics to increase my chances of being hired by INL.<br /><br />However, if I find something at INL for which I am <em>currently</em> qualified, I will probably apply, and take it if possible, and then maybe see if they'd be interested in letting me work towards a PhD while I work for them. <br /><br />It's been an interesting month.Qalmleahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17131154882107531113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13641190.post-14075347556688368672009-08-12T15:01:39.414-06:002009-08-12T15:01:39.414-06:00You're getting out???
I'm guessing you...You're getting out???<br /><br />I'm guessing you're looking at chasing a PhD now instead of doing the teaching grind full-time? If so, good on you.IAMBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12886716927402589556noreply@blogger.com
