About the course
In Mathematical Physics, you?ll combine theoretical physics with high-level math courses in differential equations, vector calculus, and applied mathematics. You?ll also get plenty of chances to apply that learning with hands-on labs in mechanics, electricity and magnetism, computer programming, optics, and more.You won?t find a better place to study than Waterloo. Our Faculty of Mathematics is the largest in Canada. Meanwhile, the Department of Physics is one of Canada?s largest and most innovative, and this program comes with a co-op option so students can gain up to two years of paid work experience while pursuing their degree.By alternating school terms and paid co-op work terms throughout your degree, you can explore new career areas and types of employers as your career interests evolve. Advanced mathematical methods are increasingly important in basic and applied research in physics, helping to drive exciting developments in both technology (for example, quantum optics and nanotechnology) and fundamental physics (for example cosmology and quantum information theory). The Department of Applied Mathematics, in collaboration with the Department of Physics, has therefore introduced an undergraduate program entitled Mathematical Physics.'
