I am a Freshman at the University of Nebraska at Kearney. I am going for a Major in Telecommunications Management, a Major in Physics, and a Minor in Mathematics.

Our Telecomm program here is "Nationally recognized", but our physics program isn't as good. I can take up to 2 optics classes, and 2 electricity/magnetism classes, before I go to do 12 hours of research for someone, somewhere.

I can't really seem to find a specific career that I want to do someday. All I know is, is that I want to work with lasers everyday.

Whether its with small diode based circuits, show systems, fiber optic networks, huge gas or DPSS systems, I just want to be able to work with them everyday. The trouble is, I just don't know what kind of jobs I should be looking for.

I do plan on applying at Creol for graduate school after I graduate here, but that doesn't necessarily mean I'll get a laser related job someday. What are some of the titles I should be aiming for? Positions? Companies that hire out of graduate school? What should I pursue for a laser- based career?

Thank you for all/any advice, I do appreciate it.
