Admission and Courses

The department offers programs leading to the Bachelor of Science in Physics and in Applied Physics, the Master of Science in Physics, and the Doctor of Philosophy in Physics.

The bachelor of science program provides a broad base in the physical sciences, mathematics, and humanities and is designed for those students planning to continue with graduate work in physics. The junior and senior years provide an integrated study of both theoretical and experimental physics. Students majoring in applied physics receive a rigorous program in physics and mathematics with provision for study of another science or branch of engineering.

Students receiving a degree in applied physics may find employment in laboratories or in industry where interdisciplinary training is of particular importance or, if qualified, they may continue with graduate studies.
