Progression Summary
program description
the physics curriculum is designed with considerable flexibility in order to accommodate the variety of interests, plans, and needs of majors. at the same time, it provides a broad and thorough understanding of the fundamental ideas and concepts related to the physical world surrounding us. using this broad base, which stresses fundamentals, undergraduates may enter graduate work in one of the pure or applied sciences or one of the non-sciences such as education, business administration, law, journalism, or philosophy. they may also choose to go directly into jobs in education, industry, government, or business.
the department of physics offers graduate work leading to the master of science and doctor of philosophy degrees. futhermore, the faculty in all research groups are strongly committed to enriching the undergraduate experience by providing opportunities for undergraduates to fully participate in cutting-edge research projects working alongside faculty and graduate students.
interdisciplinary option
this option requires a minimum of 16 credits in the declared area and is designed for those students who desire a firm background in mathematics and physics coupled with a concentration in another discipline. example declared areas are chemistry, biology, computer science, engineering, environmental studies, pre-law, pre-med, business, marketing, material science, optics, or technical writing. each student will work out a specific coordinated program with their physics advisor and an advisor in the declared area. the 16 credits of coursework in the declared area must be 100 level or higher and approved by the student's physics advisor. courses at the 100 level will be approved as needed to allow the student to obtain the appropriate prerequisites for 200 and higher level courses in the declared area.
