Mechanical Engineering to Applied Physics

<p>Thanks for the reply Lookin4ward</p>

<p>The way I’m thinking about it is that MechE touches on a fair amount of applied physics at least a little (except for QM and the particle area), while having a higher focus on things like motion, materials, thermo and energy (depending on how you schedule your classes). I would be filling the void with other physics classes as a minor or electives. Even if I had to take a class or two after graduation it wouldn’t be a problem.</p>

<p>I’ve looked into engineering physics, is there an appreciable difference between that and applied physics? Because I thought they were almost the same thing, so when I say AP I’m also thinking EP too.</p>
