Physics degrees are among the oldest degrees offered by the university. Through the years, the Physics Department has remained dedicated to instructing its students and providing them with ample opportunities for research in several branches of physics.The students and faculty of the department are frequently recognized by the university, the state of Utah, and the nation with prestigious awards, physics students at USU have been named National Science Foundation Graduate Fellows, Goldwater Scholars, and Rhodes Scholars, and students frequently win awards at research conferences.Physics classes are small, providing students with faculty attention where research is encouraged, mentored, and facilitated. Students can choose from several areas of study, which are: complexity, fields, astrophysics, and spacetime theory, plasma physics, space science, and surface physics.
