Physics is the most fundamental of the sciences with principles tied to all other physical science and engineering disciplines. Physicists study how the universe works through research in fields such as string theory, particle physics, quantum mechanics, nanotechnology, optics and astrophysics. The program offers students a foundation in physics and mathematics in preparation for technical or scientific careers. The bachelor of science in physics is necessary for a more technical or scientific role in industry or for advanced graduate study in professional programs such as medicine or law. The bachelor of arts features a thorough undergraduate core curriculum.
