About the course

The BS in physics offers a thorough study of physics for students who plan to pursue an advanced degree in physics. Physics is the most fundamental of all sciences. It is the science of matter, energy and the interactions between them. Many of the problems that will need to be solved in the coming decades will occur on the interface between physics and related areas. Understanding and utilizing new energy technologies , developing new materials for the next generation of computers and improving methods of medical imaging?all of these and more will require a thorough knowledge of physics. Across the nation over the past decade, roughly 95 percent of graduates with bachelor?s degrees in physics found employment or enrolled in graduate school immediately following graduation.

　　A career in physics is rewarding and satisfying for people who enjoy solving problems by looking at the underlying basic principles. Physicists are trained to formulate their understanding of a problem or phenomenon in precise terms and to communicate these ideas to others. These skills are becoming especially valuable today as our nation and world depend more on science and technology. After graduation, many students with a keen interest in research join graduate programs in physics. These typically provide a stipend and tuition waiver. This career path eventually leads to conducting basic research in industrial, university and national laboratories. Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships
