Bachelor of Science - Physics

The physics concentration serves as a foundation for a wide array of careers. Physics is the study of the universe: what it’s made of and how it works, ranging from stars and galaxies to atoms and nuclei and everything in between. Physics forms the foundation of many technical fields including electronics and optics and also features prominently in many of the hottest areas of current research and innovation, such as the multidisciplinary fields of nanotechnology and biophysics. Physics majors have gone on to graduate programs in physics, materials sciences, aerospace engineering and electrical engineering and to medical school. They have also gone directly into jobs in engineering, business and research.
