Physicists investigate matter, energy, and the rules that govern them, either through experiment or through mathematical and computational modelling. Applied roles put that reasoning to work in areas such as medical imaging, instrumentation, optics, or energy systems. Much of the day is spent on mathematics, code, and instrument work rather than at a whiteboard.

Astronomers study objects and processes beyond Earth using telescope observations, archival survey data, and simulations. In practice the work is dominated by writing code, handling very large datasets, and applying for observing time or funding. Instrument and software development is a substantial part of many posts.

Statisticians design studies and analyses so that the conclusions drawn from data are actually supported by it. Applied roles sit across medicine, government, agriculture, and industry, and much of the value is in the planning stage rather than the final analysis. A recurring part of the job is explaining uncertainty to people who would prefer a single number.
