In other programs, Physics can also be taken in combination with Mathematics, Geology, and Computer Science. In similar programs, Chemistry can be taken in combination with Forensic Science, Mathematics, Geology, and Computer Science.
Physics:
This learning program makes provision for the student who is interested in Physics. Careers include working in industry, research laboratories, and teaching at schools or universities. This program is well suited to careers in many manufacturing industries (mining, agriculture, and metallurgy) or engineering firms concerned with mechanical, civil, telecommunication and/or electronic and electrical activities. Careers in design, energy production, computer sciences, advanced instrumentation development, and modelling are also possible. Postgraduate studies can be pursued in Physics, provided that the necessary prerequisites are met. Combined career directions, for example, combinations of Physics and Law (e.g. patent lawyer) or Physics and economic fields (e.g. financial modelling or risk assessment) can also be considered after further studies in these directions.
