I'm having trouble distinguishing these majors, help? (Engineering/Physics/Applied)

[Gizmo j]

I am a Licensed Professional Engineer and would not hire a phyics PHD over an engineering graduate. I look for applicants that can eventually get their own P.E. so I can stop signing and sealing plans

Would you hire someone with a Ph.D in Applied Physics or Engineering Physics?

These 2 fields are suppose to be for Physicists who are interested in Engineering....but I'm not sure what's the difference between them.

Or what about Applied Science and Technology which is suppose to be a mix of Applied Physics, Engineering Science, and Applied Mathematics?

Coast Guard is not the military.

Social worker will require some type of degree in that field.
Peace corp will get you training in helping people - no income though from it.

I do not think that a single person (male/female) of your age/background will be qualified as a foster parent.

I heard you can become a Social Worker if you have a degree in Political Science (which I might pursue when I'm done with my PhD in Physics/Engineering.)

I know the peace corps doesn't pay you, I meant joining them for volunteer work.

And I wasn't saying I would become a Foster Parent RIGHT NOW...I think I might become one when I'm in my 40s or older....(maybe).

If you want to become a licensed engineer (civil, mechanical, power, electrical, chemical, nuclear, environmental, structural, and a few others), you'll need one of the following:

ABET engineering degree + experience
Non ABET engineering degree + a little more experience
No degree + a lot of experience (like 12 years or so)

Experience = doing engineering design work that several PE's will vouch for. And you have to pass the exams.
