物理文学学士

物理是对物质和能量的性质和行为的科学研究。在定量观察的基础上，物理学家发展了描述所观察到的行为的理论。进一步的实验和观察被用来验证或完善这些理论。科学方法要求逻辑和数学严格。物理学在技术上的大量应用吸引了务实的人，然而，由于其所基于的知识上的好奇心和创造力，物理学与艺术和人文学科的相似性远高于通常的认识。UI的物理课程向学生介绍技术方法和非技术课程，包括科学方法和物理定律。物理学学士和理学士课程着重于广泛的文科教育和物理学的核心学科。许多获得学士学位和学士学位的人都继续攻读物理学或相关学科的研究生。
Physics has led to many of the world's most exciting inventions, from computers and the World Wide Web, to lasers and X-ray technology. But when it comes to the natural laws of the physical universe, there is still much to be discovered.<br><br>In this program, you will study the nature and behavior of matter and energy, with a focus on classical mechanics, electricity and magnetism, modern physics, quantum mechanics and thermal physics. You will learn to apply this knowledge to solve complex scientific puzzles in medicine, technology, energy and many other areas.<br><br>Physics majors gain hands-on experience designing and conducting experiments using the very latest research techniques and computer technologies. The department also offers special research opportunities through the department's Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) program, sponsored by the National Science Foundation.
