TBH if you attend 5 years at uni and don’t catch on how few professors there are to literally everyone else at the university perhaps your reasoning skills are not that great.
I mean I did 5 years with a master in thermodynamics (physical chemistry) and my section had 20 offices. Three had a professor in them.
Top sciencetists are is like top athlets. The same drive, dedication and forsaking other things to be best.
True, but not everyone there is vying for an academic job. Especially like something in thermodynamics. I work in the aerospace industry and every engineer has at least a masters in a science/engineering field, a lot have PhD.
Trying for academia turned me off of chemistry so hard, I even started to hate my later corporate job doing research.
Though it did get me into regulations and safety, so it all worked out fine. If things had been different, they would have been different, but academia was a massive disillusionment for me.
It sounds weird to say that doing research for someone’s increasing personal wealth was much more enjoyable for me, since the funding was just there, and I didn’t have to teach students or write grant proposals I never wanted to complete.
