About the Department
Physics investigates and models nature in the most precise and fundamental ways possible. It is a driving force in the continual scientific and technological revolutions that define the modern world. Our program offers rigorous training in the fundamentals of physics, from classical mechanics to quantum mechanics.
In addition to course work, students have the opportunity to perform research with faculty in the areas of astronomy, planetary science, condensed matter, and optics. This program prepares students for work or graduate studies in physics, astronomy, engineering, and other technical fields.
Many students combine a degree in physics with studies in math, chemistry, or computer science to prepare for interdisciplinary technical fields.
