I am obsessed with this field because I want to create holograms, study quantum holography and make light magnetic for data storage, computing and revolutionizing the world! I’m 24 years old and I’m just starting in this field. I need to re learn math and the basics of physics :( and study my way up but I’m so freaking excited and I want to be an electrical and computer engineer as well, I want to be both hands on as an inventor but also be a researcher that creates formulas 👩🏿💻
I came at this from working with glass as art material... art glass specifically... glass blowing, and stained glass... combining practical glass making processes, chemistry and working techniques of hot glass and cold working glass: such as cutting and grinding and polishing, molding, coating and other processes. also architectural glass applications . I have always been as interested in the colors projected into the room space as I am interested in the imagery of the window design or symbolic representation. also my interest has been in prismatic, dichromatic and optical effects of glass ... and my interest has been in understanding refraction of light and glass making techniques. I see potential in photonics as an adjunct to art and expression ... this is not specific to science, although there has been a huge amount of science to learn to produce different types of glasses, machinery to manipulate the raw materials, blowing glass, refining glass, melting and cooling glass and several carving techniques, almost as much as learning deign and art history. It is an experimental approach and a stimulating expression of creativity using light as art and the processes of making art sculpture that bring light into our environment
You probably dont care at all but does someone know of a trick to get back into an Instagram account? I was dumb forgot the login password. I love any assistance you can offer me
@Adrien Randall i really appreciate your reply. I found the site on google and im in the hacking process atm. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
@Adrien Randall DAMN IT REALLY WORKED! I just hacked my IG account within about 45 minutes by using the site. Had to pay 15 bucks but definitely worth the money :O Thank you so much you really help me out !
It depends on what you want to do in optical computing. Do you want to actually fabricate the devices/lasers/photodetectors? Do you want to design the layout for the Photonic ICs? Do you just want to program them? For fabrication of the actual devices you would need a lot of physics/math/chemistry/material science. In general, maybe go for an EE undergrad. EE needs pretty much everything, and then you can specialize when you do a masters or PhD. And focus on nanotech/quantum mechanics.
Great advice from you guys! I am a senior student in Electrical Engineering & I am excited to start this journey! Any recommendations for books or something like this?
2:30 haha the guy is like physics i fun, do physics, physics is fun. He reminds me of the South park episode when they learn about how drugs are bad. Great video by the way.
Thanks for this advise, I'm currently undertaken photonics degree in my first which I'm taking mathematics and physics this give me a lot to think about it.
If you are thinking of going into photonics, I think you should, it a great field. If love innovation and like collaboration, it’s perfect field to get into. You get to work with physicists, biologists, chemists, engineers and so many more. You constantly learning new things. The great thing about collaborating with people, you learn something from expertise while they learn from you.
@@spurtydarbhamulla1130 There are endless opportunities in the field. My program has ties with tons of companies. To name a few: Idex Health & Science, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Sumitomo, and plenty more. We not only have Optics/Laser companies reach out we get lots of engineering companies and electronics companies trying to hire us. (I'm just now starting my second year)
@@spurtydarbhamulla1130 It's really amazing course. Great career opportunities provided your knowledge level is high. Try getting into premier institutions like NIT, IIT for M.Sc. Or you can do B.Tech in EEE and do your M.Tech in Optoelectronic. But make sure you get a professional course or Phd. Career prospects are great all over the world.
Really, honestly that is it. I was a scientist and I'm now doing a different degree, and spending three months doing maths and practice problems each year really makes a massive difference. Being interested is the only thing that makes working in a field worthwhile. Moreover, why would it be more complicated than "learn, practice and be interested"?
The advice given is specific, and can be applied to almost all careers beyond those within the STEM fields. To become an expert at anything, one must practice, understand the subject’s foundations, and have a motivated form of curiosity. The reason why a lot of these experts are repeating this advice is because physics is a process of trial and error. Mistakes can be overwhelming for one to handle at times, which can lead to a fixed mindset.

Have you got into your desired field now...?
Yeah where are you in life now?
Interesting

Glad you liked the video, good luck in your studies!
Glad to be part of the Photonics community!

@Kash Julius You are welcome :D
Hoping to do something related over the next four months at home, watching these is so fun
Great interview with students, thanks for posting.
Could anybody give advice to an undergraduate computer science major that is interested in optical computing?
read a lot of physics book, solid state, quantum,..mmmm, thats it oh and load up on a shitload of math

now your on the right path. kudos💃

Why aren't new videos coming up in SPIE channel in UA-cam

So buddy how did it pan out
What is update mate? Tinking to get into it now

@@untold_cambridge I love it
@@dramese Thanks for reply.
How much schooling are required to be a fiber optics tech
proud to be a photonics student.
Damn right!

great video. thanks
We also think so! It's amazing
Motivation
photonic radar has more potential to the next generation.
why do they keep talking about astronomy, we are talking about optics and photonics
This stuff is all pretty generic. "Practice! Know Maths! Be Interested!". Wow really?

smart guy... 😆
thought , is the evidence of things not seen
i'm 10 years late. 😢
It's never too late to learn!
physics is fun, everything else isn't, it's all about physics????????????
Yup :)
Pretty much. (Current Laser and Photonics Engineering student)
Weapons too
My iq is too low for this. D:
No it's not, get after it. Good luck 👍🏼

Oh believe me you are much smarter than what you think
We all feel stupid sometimes
i mean appreciate it. defintely makes my head spin though@@grassystars
Some very good advice from some very established people, just curious about the one person who doesn't like the video....dropped at birth?
he must be the one who was not invited for the video 😖
LOL!
