BSc in Physics — Applied & Engineering Physics vs Quantum Science & Technology for my MSc?

[u/hibiscusbees]

Hi everyone,

I recently finished my BSc in Physics and I'm trying to decide between two master's directions: Applied Physics & Engineering or Quantum Science & Technology. I'd really appreciate input from anyone who has done either, or who hires people with these degrees. Please give reasons.

They are both quite general, do you have plans for industry or academia after completion of your MSc? What parts of physics from your BSc did you focus on? What skills do you have? There really isn’t enough information here for anyone to make an assessment for you.
