The Applied Physics BS curriculum allows students to concentrate their studies in a particular concentration area of special interest to them, while obtaining a broad and solid foundation in physics. It is a popular choice for students seeking employment directly after graduation. The concentration is determined after consultation with oneâ€™s academic advisor, and appears explicitly on the studentâ€™s diploma Students are challenged to study science beginning with the fundamental aspects, proceeding on to subjects with modern applications. Our undergraduate program welcomes first year students to the department in a semester course called â€œPassion for Physicsâ€. In this course students are introduced to research opportunities by Physics Faculty. In the junior year, our undergraduate program features a culminating experience project, which allows students to gain research experience in an area of interest. These experiences allow students to prepare for careers in academia or industry. Out Comes: Students who successfully complete this program will be able to demonstrate: An ability to evaluate the validity and utility of experimental information using logical, mathematical, and statistical tools. An ability to perform scientific calculations and data analysis using computational and mathematical tools. An ability to communicate technical material effectively using both oral and written presentation. An ability to apply knowledge of electromagnetic theory using vector calculus to analyze and model real situations. An ability to apply mechanics and kinematics including the analysis using differential equations and the Lagrangian formulation to address new problems in science and technology. An ability to apply knowledge of basic phenomenology and concepts of quantum, atomic, nuclear, and particle physics along with ability to solve and analyze solutions to the Schrodinger equation to address new problems in science and technology. An ability to apply and synthesize concepts from core mechanics, electromagnetics, thermodynamics, and quantum mechanics courses in the in-depth study of a specialized field related to Physics such as Condensed Matter Physics, Optical Physics and Photonics, Particle Physics, Astrophysics, Biophysics, Astronomy, or Engineering. Career Paths Our goal is to help you develop the skills you need to establish a rewarding and productive career. There are many options, depending on your talents and interests. You can tailor our flexible curriculum to suit your needs. Traditional career choices include research in government, industrial, or university laboratories. Many of our students continue on to the best graduate schools to study physics, astronomy, mathematics, or engineering; others have gone on to successful careers in medicine, technical management, law, investment banking, and teaching.
