Dimension in physics

I have a solid understanding of topological dimension. I heard that some string theororists think that the universe is >= 10-dimensional, but that the extra 7+ dimensions are too small for us to encounter. How can a dimension be small; is it just a model for what is observed, or is it based in theory?

Retard, physicists are some of the most employ people in the world. A physics degree shows high numerical ability, logical thinking, problem solving and grounded in real world situations. Financial institutions that pay the big bucks, for example, are big employers of physicists.
