Many people (friends & family) asked me this question: "eh, what are you studying now ah / what course are you in now ah??"

"BSc Geophysics..."

"ha?? geo- what??? "

"err.. geophysics la.. geology + physics.. one of geosciences.. "

"oh....... what you do after u graduate ah??"

"hmm.. a lot worh............."

I faced a lot of similar conversations above.. I may not be able to choose my main focus in geophysics now, but i am certain that im sticking with this career/course..

here are a few sites for references on what a geophysicist does, salary, what he learns, etc etc etc..

Geophysics is actually not very popular among malaysians.. the most they will go is Geology (malaysia still got a lot of oil mah..) In malaysia, there are only 2 universities providing this course (to my knowledge)
1. Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM)
2. Curtin University, Sarawak Campus

it seems like there is not much hope for Geophysicists in Malaysia =( but this will not stop me from going after this career.. =D
