applying to PhD programs; quant

[branson]

Hi, I'm a physics major who is deciding whether to apply to a Phd program or go straight into banking as an analyst? Which is better? I'm interested in research, but I know that I dont want to go work in the industry nor academia after my phd.

You don't want to work in industry or academia after your PhD, so what do you want to do?

From physics to market you can take part of the quant program from Big Banks or do a certificate like wilmott or a MFE.
But I didnt get your question as well, you dont want to work after your PhD in the particular physics industry or any industry ?

Exactly... I thought the point of getting a PhD is precisely to get into industry, research, or academia.

So what... you want to do research at CERN but not be a professor at any university?
