This degree provides a very solid physics foundation in the first two years, and in the third and forth years students will focus on developing applied programming skills such as simulation, modeling and pattern recognition. This degree is perfect for students with an interest in both physics and computer science.
If you want a broad background in the sciences, without the depth in any of the sciences required for an individual science major, the General Science major may be for you. It includes courses in biology, chemistry, geology and physics with a concentration in Physics. The concentration involves some depth of study, but not to the extent required for a major in the discipline. Some graduates of the program have gone to graduate school in physical therapy...
These programs emphasize preparation for graduate school or for careers in mathematically and numerically intense industry, government and military laboratories. We encourage (and expect) you to take the most demanding courses in physics, mathematics and computer science. In addition to the two traditional aspects of physics, experimental and theoretical, a third has emerged - computational physics. Now that supercomputers are more available, scientists...
This program is designed to teach students the fundamentals of physics as well as applications of that knowledge to a study of our environment. Students study the Earth's land, oceans and atmosphere to more fully understand the function and interrelationship of these systems and the impact and influence of human activities upon these systems. To understand this interaction and to enhance their awareness of the environment from a variety of scientific...
This is a very strong program that combines the analysis and problem solving training of physics with the technical training of "industrial arts". Students trained in this program are in strong competition with industrial engineers. However, they have a distinct advantage of studying more physics than industrial engineers and hence are more broadly trained. This program encourages electronics and computer studies which enable graduates to seek employment...
This program is designed with a two-fold purpose: for the Physics major who wishes to pursue entrance to a medical or other health professional school or for the major who wishes to go into the Medical Physics profession. It is not normally a terminal Bachelor's degree. Medical Physics is a lucrative field (after receiving a Master's or Ph.D.) where one applies their physics training to electronic or radiological problems specifically to alleviate...
There is a strong nation-wide need for well trained personnel to serve as technical support staff for physics faculty at colleges and universities. These people are responsible for instructional and research equipment in their department. They assist faculty members in designing and constructing apparatus for research projects, laboratory experiments and classroom demonstrations. The Physics Lab/Demonstration Management program provides the background,...
