Rileydog- I think you responded to my previous thread when I asked a similar question about medical physics. Isn't your husband currently a medical physicist? This could been someone else...

Yeah, I visited a few cancer treatment centers, mostly university hospitals, but I didn't get the impression that they worked on call when I talked to them. The two who I talked to, one in therapy and the other in imaging, both only stayed late because they were very into their research and equipment was only free to use at night.

I was hoping all of my responses would be skewed so it'd be an easy decision. However, I'm still leaning towards the medical physics PhD route because I can't even imagine what my ideal first mechanical engineering job would be. Plus, I have guaranteed funding for 4-5 years. Help me...
