Extractions: This memo is to bring to your attention that there exist a number of courses at Illinois which may be useful for you should you choose to seek employment outside of physics, for example in medical physics, law, engineering or finance. These courses are free to you as enrolled graduate students, but could only be taken at a later stage in your career at considerable expense. During the last few years an increasing number of physicists have successfully made the career transition, following graduation with a Ph.D. in physics, into finance. My focus on finance in this memo is purely a reflection of my knowledge of this particular employment opportunity; a much broader range of opportunities does exist, and I strongly encourage you to explore them also. Some aspects of the trend for physicists to move into finance were covered in this article from the American Institute of Physics publication The Industrial Physicist , which is a good resource for students wishing to learn about applications of physics in the real world.
