The degree in Applied Physics encourages students to solve problems using a combination of physics, engineering, and mathematics. Your major course work provides fundamental studies in classical mechanics, electromagnetism, modern physics, statistical and quantum physics, and laboratory experimental methods.
You’ll use your studies to follow your interests in areas like Physics, Computational Physics, Optics, Electromagnetism, or Nuclear Science and Engineering. With hands-on projects, you’ll solve tough problems using real-world applications of physics principles to challenges in various engineering disciplines. Or delve into specific topics like Nanoscience or Biophysics with faculty research groups.
