Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Physics-Mathematics (OUY) (Optional Co-op)

Studying physics gives insight into the fundamental laws of nature. But an education in physics gives so much more. The rigorous training University of Ottawa students receive in analyzing and understanding complex problems is valuable in many future careers. While many of the graduates have established careers in universities and in the high tech sector as research and development scientists, others have used their physics degrees as a springboard to careers in finance, administration, medicine, management or education. The range of career opportunities is perhaps wider than for any other students with a science education. 

The professors and graduates are an important part of this chain. Many of the professors have also been recognized for their teaching and are seen as world-class researchers in their fields of expertise.
