物理学理学学士

物理科学学士学位旨在培养计划在物理学或相关领域（MS或博士学位课程）继续进修，或计划在物理学家，科学助理或工业技术人员中就业的学生，国家实验室或学术实验室。该课程将BA课程的物理基础教育与其他高级课程，实验室和计算机工作相结合，并且在诸如固态物理学，光学物理学或计算物理学等专业领域中进行了更专门的工作。强烈鼓励该课程的学生获得研究经验。物理和天文学系提供强大的物理，天文学和天体物理学专业的本科生和研究生课程，旨在为学生提供从事科学，技术和教学的各种职业以及研究生学习的准备。目的是教育多才多艺的物理学家和天
The Bachelor of Science in Physics is designed to educate students who plan to pursue further education in physics or related fields (M.S. or Ph.D. programs), or who plan to seek employment as physicists, scientific associates, or technical staff members in industry, national laboratories, or academic laboratories. This program combines the education in physics fundamentals of the B.A. program with additional advanced courses, laboratory, and computer work, and more specialized work in a specialty such as solid state physics, optical physics, or computational physics. Students in this program are strongly encouraged to gain research experience. The Physics and Astronomy Department offers strong undergraduate and graduate programs in physics, astronomy, and astrophysics, which are designed to prepare students for a variety of careers in science, technology, and teaching, as well as for graduate study. The goal is to educate versatile physicists and astronomers who combine a solid knowledge of theory with real-world skills in problem-solving, data acquisition and analysis, and computer-based simulation and analysis. High school preparation for these programs should include two years of algebra, one year of geometry, one semester of trigonometry, one year of chemistry, and one year of physics. Some experience in computer programming is valuable. All students, especially those who have not completed a substantial chemistry course in high school, are strongly urged to take CHEM 115, CHEM 215, and CHEM 216 in their first year of college.
