mathematical physics is an interdisciplinary program studying conceptual, mathematical frameworks that describe or explain physical phenomena. in this area of study, one builds theories of physical phenomena, accounting for physical features which are then expressed in precise mathematical terms. the deductions of the theory are expected to capture some aspect of physical reality. mathematical physics extends to the deepest and most fascinating realms of both disciplines. this program was uniquely designed by the departments of mathematics and statistics and physics and engineering physics to meet the needs of students interested in this interdisciplinary subject. mathematical physics is an exciting field that is continually evolving.
