物理文学学士

物理学是自然科学的最基础。它关心的是在长度，时间和能量的各个尺度上理解世界。物理方法多种多样，但它们有一个共同的目标，即开发和完善可定量解释观测结果和实验结果的基本模型。以物理学定律为例的物理学发现，是人类探索的最重要成就之一，对人类文化和文明产生了巨大影响。该系的成员在天体物理学，生物物理学，宇宙学，基本粒子物理学，引力，软硬凝聚态物理学和统计物理学领域进行研究。在该部门的最新实验室以及国家和国际机构（例如CERN的大型强子对撞机和太空天文望远镜）中进行实验工作。该部门的教育计划旨在提供一系列课程满足不
Physics is the most basic of the natural sciences. It is concerned with understanding the world on all scales of length, time, and energy. The methods of physics are diverse, but they share a common objective to develop and refine fundamental models that quantitatively explain observations and the results of experiments. The discoveries of physics rank among the most important achievements of human inquiry and have had an enormous impact on human culture and civilization. Members of the department conduct research in the fields of astrophysics, biophysics, cosmology, elementary particle physics, gravitation, hard and soft condensed matter physics, and statistical physics, carrying out experimental work in state-of-the art laboratories in the department and at such national and international facilities as the Large Hadron Collider at CERN and large astronomical observatories.<br><br>The educational programs of the department are aimed at providing a range of courses to meet the needs of different student groups. For undergraduate physics majors, there is a rigorous core program, exposure to current frontiers, and opportunities for research. For science majors outside of physics, there are technical courses that emphasize the fundamental physical laws that underpin other sciences, and for other majors, nontechnical courses introduce some of the most important concepts of physics and their impact on the contemporary world.
