Programs and Courses

Undergraduate

The B.A. program is intended for students seeking careers in physics education or careers not requiring graduate study in physics, and provides extensive opportunities to take courses in the liberal arts and to pursue other minors. Students interested in K-12 education major in both physics and elementary or secondary education, and are strongly encouraged to seek advice from both departments early in their careers. The B.A. in physics is also especially appropriate for students seeking careers in law or medicine.

The B.S. in Physics will provide students seeking careers requiring graduate study in physics or engineering with an in-depth study of physics appropriate to their needs.

The B.S in Applied Physics combines the B.S. in Physics with a focused concentration in any one of biochemistry, computer science, or engineering. As focused as many accredited engineering B.S. programs, it provides more than adequate preparation for students seeking careers requiring graduate study in physics or engineering.
