About the course
This program prepares students for careers in physics and a broad range of related disciplines, such as systems engineering and medical physics. Students will develop the technical skills needed to explore fundamental aspects of the universe, from subatomic particles to the origin of the cosmos. This program offers introductory physics in a lecture and studio format ? an active learning environment that includes group work and labs, all in a single room with a professor and graduate teaching assistants. The style allows for a coherent, connected and supportive experience. One studio course integrates the study of calculus and physics, for a deeper understanding of both subjects. The program offers concentrations in astronomy, materials science and chemical physics, which allows students to focus their learning at the undergraduate level. You?ll have many research opportunities with physics faculty and research scientists, working on projects funded by NASA, the National Science Foundation, the Department of Education, Department of Defense, National Institutes of Health and other agencies and organizations. You?ll learn how to approach, analyze and solve complex problems as you develop new technologies, methods and theories that will prepare you for a range of careers in research, engineering and education.
