物理文学学士

物理与天文学系提供的本科课程可取得物理学学士学位（BS）和理学学士学位（BS），主修物理学，并集中于天文学。物理学士学位是为那些希望进入政府或私营企业的各个研究或开发领域之一的学生而设计的。此外，该课程还为那些有兴趣继续深造并准备在各个层次任教的学生提供服务。物理学学士学位的专业性较低，更适合于各个领域的研究，包括中学阶段教学的准备。<br> <br>相邻的职业机会列表显示了物理学学位的巨大灵活性。这为广泛的职业做好了准备。但是请记住，影响就业能力的主要因素是准备。学生如何研究工作选择，获得额外的教育和经
The Department of Physics and Astronomy offers an undergraduate curriculum leading to a Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) degree in physics and a Bachelor of Science (B.S.) degree with a major in physics and with a concentration in astronomy. The B.S. in physics is designed for those students who expect to enter one of the various fields of research or development in government or in private industry. The curriculum, in addition, serves those students who are interested in continuing into graduate study and those preparing to teach at all levels. The B.A. degree in physics is less specialized and more adaptable to studies in various fields, including preparation for teaching at the secondary school level. The adjacent list of career possibilities shows the enormous flexibility of a physics degree. It is good preparation for a very broad range of occupations. Keep in mind, however, that a major factor influencing employability is preparation. How well a student researches job alternatives, gains additional educational and experiential background to qualify for areas of increasing employability, and goes about applying for these position openings, have pronounced influences on employability. In general, the physics student with additional skills or a highly specialized emphasis has special advantages in the job market. Students also have a strong chance of increasing employability by strengthening their skills with additional course work from related disciplines, such as geology, oceanography, statistics, computer technology and mathematics.
