物理文学学士

该学士课程是为希望保留研究生院专业选择而又不牺牲文科教育优势的学生量身定制的。除了核心课程（包括外语要求）外，还必须完成至少三门3000或4000级的选修课。建议这三种选修课中的至少一项包括ASTRON 4322，PHYSICS 4311或PHYSICS 4347，以达到所需的顶石课程。物理与天文学系将接受美国手语的三门课程，以取代该学位的外语要求。至少需要31个小时的物理课程，但不超过45个小时。
Understand matter.<br>Physicists investigate the fundamental nature of forces and particles and the resulting states of matter that make up the physical world. Studying physics strengthens quantitative reasoning and problem solving skills that are valuable in areas beyond physics because students learn how to analyze complex problems, giving them a strong quantitative background that can be applied in any technical field.<br>The BA in Physics is designed to combine the rigorous study of physics with additional studies of languages and the liberal arts and is tailored to students wishing to preserve the option for specialization in graduate school without sacrificing the advantages of a liberal arts education. This program provides undergraduates with a broad-based education in the fundamental concepts of physics and with the experimental and theoretical skills essential to practicing scientists. This degree is ideal preparation for a career that combines science with other fields, such as science journalism, science policy or patent law.<br>Students seeking to major in physics are designated as pre-physics majors until they have completed both Physics 2111 and Physics 2112 (or equivalent courses) with grades of C- or better.
