Bachelor of Science - Physics

Physics is the foundational science upon which all other natural sciences and most types of engineering are built. This makes physics the most diverse and applicable technical major students can have. Physicists work to deeply understand the smallest things, the biggest things, the oldest things, the newest things and everything in between. People with physics degrees or who worked as physicists invented such major innovations as electric power, the electric battery, the electric motor, radio, X-ray imaging, the mass spectrometer, the electronic digital computer, NMR and MRI, PET scanning, the nuclear reactor, the transistor, the integrated circuit, the laser, the first video game, wireless LAN, and the World-Wide Web. 

The Bachelor of Science in Physics degree for physics majors planning to pursue graduate programs in physics, applied physics, astrophysics, astronomy, planetary science, geophysics, biophysics, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, aerospace engineering, or who want a demanding physics degree for other graduate or professional degree programs or for other occupations.
