Physicist

A physicist is a scientist trained in physics. Physicists are employed by universities as professors, lecturers, and researchers, and by laboratories in industry. Employment as a professional physicist generally requires a doctoral degree. Many people who are trained as physicists, however, use their skills in other parts of the economy, in particular in computing and finance. There are numerous different branches of physics and their corresponding physics specialists, such as astrophysicists, geophysicists, or biophysicists.
