The Bachelor of Science degree in Physics consists of three Options. Students following the Physics Option prepare for research, industrial, and governmental careers or for graduate study in physics or related fields.
General Requirements Admission to the program is contingent upon good academic standing and acceptance by the department. A grade of C or above is required in transfer credit in all chemistry, mathematics, and physics courses. A maximum...

Digital Arts & Sciences students benefit from an education in both the artistic and scientific aspects of digital graphic arts. The program prepares students for career opportunities in a wide range of fields ” from working in movies and computer/video games, education (Web-based delivery of exciting educational materials) to computational science (scientific visualization) and graphics for virtual reality applications.
The special program is designed to encourage a student with strong interests in the two areas to develop a deeper understanding of economics by viewing it, in part, as an area of applied mathematics. This concentration should be considered seriously by all those intending to pursue graduate studies in economics, business, or quantitative social science, and also by those desiring a more flexible commitment to the programs for concentration in these...
The Harvard Physics Department has a large and very active undergraduate program, graduating 50-60 majors (concentrators) a year (including those in the Chemistry and Physics concentration, also administered by the department). The hallmark of the undergraduate program is flexibility, as 40-50 percent of Harvard physics graduates go to graduate school in physics or a closely related field; the rest pursue a wide range of careers including medical...
An undergraduate degree in physics provides an excellent basis not only for graduate study in physics and related fields, but also for professional work in such fields as astrophysics, biophysics, engineering and applied physics, geophysics, management, law, or medicine. The undergraduate curriculum offers students the opportunity to acquire a deep conceptual understanding of fundamental physics.
Physics addresses the material universe at its most fundamental levels. The laws revealed by careful study and experiment should apply from subatomic to cosmological scales. (In fact, these two extremes turn out to be intimately related.) With currently-understood physical law and mathematics as a foundation, the goals of physics are to push to still deeper levels of understanding and to push upward, extending our understanding to more complicated...
The study of physics is undertaken by three principal classes of undergraduates:
* those including physics as part of a general education;
* those preparing for careers in professional fields that require a knowledge of physics, such as medicine or engineering;
* those preparing for teaching or research careers in physics or related fields.
Concentrations for the Physics Major include: Applied Physics, Astrophysics, Biophysics, Geophysics,...
At Penn, the curriculum for undergraduate Physics majors, which includes extensive laboratory experience, is based on faculty strengths in many fields: Condensed Matter Physics, Medical Physics, Elementary Particle Physics, Cosmology, Astrophysics, Biophysics, Nanoscience, String Theory and other fields. Undergraduate teaching is linked to faculty research efforts and many undergraduates participate in research.
Physics is the study of the fundamental laws of nature. Applied physics uses these laws to understand phenomena that may have practical applications. Engineering in turn makes use of these phenomena for human purposes, forming a link between the fundamental laws of nature and their applications. Students majoring in Applied Physics take courses in both physics and engineering, as well as courses specifically in applied physics. Students completing...
Physics forms a foundation for all other sciences. The various undergraduate courses and degree programs offered by the Physics department provide students with a thorough preparation in physics for any career. To satisfy the needs of science students and to provide the general background in physics that should be part of a liberal education, the department offers five different introductory sequences and two different degree programs for Physics...
