nba asked:


These are the guidelines for 4th grade:
This can include any aspect of the physical sciences but could be extended to include people, plants, and animals in the home. Remember safety aspects of physical science including never mixing chemicals without checking with an adult, wearing goggles, reading labels, and using batteries for power.

Why is a Physics PhD needed but Engineers only need a Masters to get a good job?

Atom asked:


Physics Masters are rare from what I’ve heard. So why does a Physics major need a PhD? It seems that a lot of Engineers just get their MS and then enter the workforce with ease. Are there any benefits to getting a Masters in Physics?

TROJAN DUDE asked:


I plan on going to med-school and becoming some sort of physician. But what if I end up being rejected from med-school or I change my mind about going to med-school after majoring in a science in college; what science major could I major in that would also help me with other high/moderate-paying careers? For example, would psychology be a good choice to major in?

Is Biomedical Science a popular field to study and does it pay much?

Wednesday, April 22nd, 2009 | Science | No Comments

Desperate or in Love asked:


Hey, so i am a junior and the counselors have been bugging us about our future. Well, at first, i thought of being a surgeon and there is no way to that. However, I am interested in chemistry and biology. I was looking through some universities catalogs and biomedicine seems interesting to me. However, I know very little about it. Does it pay much? Do people look up to it when i say i am studying for biomedical science?

What awards can i give to my biology students on awards day?

Tuesday, April 21st, 2009 | Biology | 2 Comments

Keely asked:


I am giving out awards to my 9th grade Biology students next week at a school wide awards presentation. I am trying to think of some different awards. I am already giving out “Most Improved” and “Outstanding Academic Achievement”. I was also thinking “Most Enthusiastic”.

Can you think of some other awards I could give students that are not just highest grades type thing.

I don’t want anything silly. I don’t want anything elementary school like. It’s a serious awards thing with parents and everything there.

Thanks for your help!
