Bachelor of Science - Physics

Physics majors study the fundamental nature of reality using mathematical models based on experiment, observation and intuition. Students will study a broad range of topics ranging from the tiniest of subatomic particles to the largest: the universe itself. They will explore concepts as seemingly simple as tossing a ball, and as arcane as what the universe looks like when they travel near the speed of light. As a physics major, students' quest to learn the mathematical underpinnings of the nature of reality is the first step toward understanding, and ultimately explaining, this strange and beautiful existence people inhabit.
