Which research direction of optics has more employment prospects?

Employment prospects of optical engineering;

Some professionals divide optical engineering into two categories. Horizontally, there are relatively few good research companies that can be selected for optical engineering, and the employment scope is narrower. In contrast, it is far less good than the majors of machinery and electronics. From a vertical perspective, the employment fields of the above major majors are similar, and the employment prospects and employment fields are better.

Employment direction of optical engineering:

1. photoelectric imaging devices and wide-beam electron optics: mainly engaged in the principle and technology, design, detection and application technology of various photoelectric imaging devices.

2. Virtual reality and augmented reality technology: mainly engaged in the research of algorithms, technologies and systems of virtual reality and augmented reality, and their applications in various fields.

3. Low light level and infrared thermal imaging technology: mainly engaged in the design, testing, simulation and overall technology of low light level and infrared imaging detection theory, technology and system.

4. Space optics and adaptive optics: mainly engaged in the research on the theory, technology and system of space optics and adaptive optics and their applications.
