What are some medical jobs?

What high paying jobs may one get with Chemistry and Physics, excluding medical jobs, and what do they pay?

• I am willing to work my way all the way to PhD level in any non-medical or environmental course. I simply wish to know of the jobs which will give me over $100k Australian without having to work in a medical area or have to live in an obscure mining location. Having a salary of $60+ within 2 years is preferable. Thanks in advance.

• Answer:

  Physicists in particular are in heavy demand for mathematical finance, which can easily pay over $100,000 U.S. immediately. For chemistry there's always the pharmaceutical industry. That I don't know too much about but I'm relatively certain that you can have a job for a pharmaceutical company which just involves figuring out chemical syntheses without having any direct exposure to the medical aspects. I've also heard that a lot of professors can make a lot of extra money by working as expert witnesses in trials.
