Many people with advanced knowledge of maths and physics will work in academia, researching, and teaching. As the human world becomes more increasingly dependent on technology, there are more and more sectors demanding maths knowledge. For example, finance and tech companies need people with advanced maths knowledge and the abilities learnt from physics. Space science is a bigger sector in Europe than people realise, with many companies connected to the European Space Agency involved in research and manufacturing, creating opportunities for maths and physics graduates.
