About the course

Physics is the study of matter and energy and their interactions from microscopic to macroscopic regimes. It is the most fundamental physical science in the sense that the laws of physics form the foundation of all natural sciences. The undergraduate physics major provides a thorough introduction to the core areas of physics while offering students flexibility to pursue special interests through our academic, astronomy, or general concentrations. The academic concentration is intended for students interested in professional employment or graduate work in physics or ly related fields such as astronomy, engineering, laser technology, or computational science. The astronomy concentration is designed for students who may wish to do graduate work in astronomy or astrophysics. The general concentration is intended for students who wish to apply a substantial knowledge of physics to fields such as secondary education, medicine, law, journalism, business, or any field of their choice.
