Science / Physics

Bachelor of Arts

A background in physics prepares students for diverse fields such as astronomy, medicine, engineering, architecture, consulting, acoustics, science education, science policy, as well as physics. Physics courses explore physical phenomena and properties of the universe like mechanics, gravitation, electricity and magnetism, atomic and nuclear structure, waves and optics, and the properties of matter and energy. During coursework, students acquire skills with the theoretical and experimental tools required for the practice of physics and astronomy. At the same time, students come to appreciate how the intersection of science and technology has shaped history and society. The Physics (BS) program has three tracks: traditional physics, chemical physics, and computational physics. The Physics (BA) is designed to give students a strong scientific background, but allow them more flexibility to complete additional academic programs and to pursue other interests. The Physics (BA) program is ideal for students preparing for fields in science policy, science education, science communication, patent law, and related interdisciplinary careers.
