Your Main Interest

[learnin to learn]

If you had to chose one, what would be your favorite subject in science to study??

 

Feel free to elaborate!

[Tormod]

Astronomy for me. Although I'd choose cosmology if it was available...it involves just about anything anyway. :D

[infamous]

I chose Physics, although like Tormod, I am also fascinated by cosmology and if it were listed would have to place it as my second choice. Someday, when humanity has aquired the knowledge that will unify all the forces, we may have to establish a new field of study. The time may come when our understanding will lead us to unite various fields of science into one superior overview. On the other hand, as our knowledge expands, may also the number of our scientific disciplines...........Infy

i chose physics even though i probably like chemistry just as much and am considered a fledgling in both catagories.

Two weeks ago I would have chosen biology, but ever since I have started my course in physics I cant get enough of it!

[Racoon]

I chose Medical Science..

'Cuz that is what I am stuyding; and it is fascinating

 

Thats where the Jobs and Needs are.

[Mercedes Benzene]

Chemistry for me! It's not even close. Chemistry is absolutely amazing!!

[TheBigDog]

I voted physics because Industrial Engineering was not a choice. The process of continuous improvement. Elimination of process variation. Elimination of quality defects within a process. It is not limited only to manufacturing, but extends to all things that we do in life. It is the inate need to leave things better than we found them. I am haunted by it. It is my soul.

I voted physics because physics is still having some mysteries that attracted me, and because I like Albert Einstein who is the great physician too.

Astro all the way :(

 

It is physics in practice in the most brilliant & incredible way!

It's a tough question for me...

 

I like physics, for the sheer predictive power hidden into it's equations, and the limitless potential for imaginative and creative evaluations, discoveries and well... theories. What makes it stink is just how less we know about it... and that currently it focusses more on what happens than why it happens.

 

I also adore Biology, because of just how interesting it is to understand how the whole biological system works.

It is also very interesting to see how our body works, especially when it helps me understand how to take care of my body.

The reason I do not like it... is because I hate the long and evil process of learning by rut the countless names ad designations of various things... like learning the names of all the bones in the body.

I also hate the fact that the naming system focusses very much on latin, greek and antient european languages. I mean... what the friggin point in calling the thigh bone a femur???

 

Chemistry... well it is not like I dislike it... I mean I find the mechanisms of reactions pretty okay, and physical chemistry interesting... but ever since I've seen the hellishly extensive types of reactions contained in organic chemistry, and the I've been forced to learn by rut the shockingly random seeming catalysts and things like that... I've developed a kind of... prejudice against Chemistry. It's clearing up, since I've begun to actively try and figure out the mechanisms of those apparently random chemical reactions.

 

As for the rest of the subjects given above, although they have been mere sub headings of chemistry, physics and biology in my school courses, I might consider astronomy as good.

[pgrmdave]

Astronomy for me, although physics is very tempting. I like how all sciences, at their core, eventually come down to physics. But I'd choose astronomy, simply because I think that the stars are beautiful.

[myspip90]

Where's math?

Well anyway, physics is the best

[Vagabond -SC2-]

This is a tough question: As someone posted earlier that there may be a change to a new unified science. This change as already begun. Biochemistry is a great example in which two separate disciplines have merged one now needs to understand the biological system and environment in which chemical reactions are taking place. This also starts taking in physics as well.. As a lab director for a major pharma company I should choose medical sciences but I am highly interested in cosmology though i do not know much about it.

 

My other issue is that I find it that when you do something as your job it tends to turn normal. Me as an example the process of discovering new drugs that may be able to help humans out in say 20 years from initial start may sound interesting to many. Well it is my lab lives on the cutting edge of the medical field and we try and make it over the next horizon for the future and we have a great time at it as well. But it is what I do and that can sometimes get, well normal.

 

I sometimes look at other professions and say now that looks like fun, but the same thing I am sure can occur once you settle in. Ok perhaps I rambled on enough.

Astro all the way :hyper:

The practice is never stopping while the universe exists, but mystery will be stopped if scientists find out a single secret of phenomena. You should consult some theories about secret of phenomena, such as Unified Field Theory (UFT), Theory of Everything (TOE) and The Final Theory (TFT) to have an estimate of this secret.

what do yall think of biophysics?

[maikeru]

Bugs to bats, plants to whales--they all fall under the domain of biology, and that's my "thang." :D
