What do graduates do after MNSU?

Annually, the Physics and Astronomy Department graduates ~5-10 undergraduates students in the physics majors, and historically 50% of these graduates have taken the astronomy minor. A further 1-3 students typically graduate each year in our Masters program.

Some students go on to academic research, but many do not and they take a wide variety of career paths.  Graduates in physics and astronomy are amongst the most highly sought after across the modern STEM economy because of the skills they have acquired and developed in their degrees.
