物理学理学学士

本科物理课程为学生提供有关现代物理学基础的广泛培训，确保他们有基础从事基础研究的研究生学习和职业。所有加州理工学院的本科生都必须完成三个物理入门课程，尽管大多数选择都需要附加的物理学。那些选择修读物理课程的人会继续更深入地学习该学科。本科物理课程为学生提供了现代物理基础方面的广泛培训，确保他们有基础从事基础研究的研究生学习和职业。加州理工学院的所有本科生都必须完成三学期的入门物理课程，尽管大多数选修课程都需要额外的物理课程。那些选择了物理选修课程的人继续深入研究该学科。高二级课程探索波，量子力学和统计力学
The physics option offers instruction in the fundamentals of modern physics and provides a foundation for graduate study, which is generally necessary for a career in basic research. The physics program also forms an excellent basis for future work in a variety of applied fields. An intensive version of the sophomore physics course (waves, quantum mechanics, and statistical mechanics) is offered for those planning further study in physics and the required junior-level courses give a thorough treatment of fundamental principles. Elective courses taken during the junior and senior years allow students to explore their particular interest. Some electives offer broad surveys, while others concentrate on particular fields of current research. A choice of laboratory course is offered at several levels.
