物理科学与数学物理学学士学位

对理论物理学感兴趣并在数学方面有深厚背景的学生可以修读物理学学士学位，即正式的“具有数学物理集中度的物理学学士学位”。该程序基于物理，但在课程要求上有某些替代。一些实验室课程被高级数学课程所替代，而一些大学物理课程被相似的研究生课程所替代。该计划与数学和物理学士学位不同，后者是由两个部门共同管理的数学和物理学方面的连贯且并行的教育。
The mission of the Bachelor of Sciences in Physics with a Mathematical Physics Concentration degree program is to develop professional physicists whose interests are focused on theoretical physics. This undergraduate program provides an enhanced, graduate-level education in electromagnetism and quantum mechanics as well as experience in mathematical methods used in theoretical physics. The complete set of Program Student Learning Outcomes for this degree can be found at the end of this posting.<br><br>This program is based on the B.S. in Physics but with certain substitutions in the course requirements. Two advanced laboratory courses are replaced by mathematics courses and some undergraduate physics courses are replaced by similar graduate courses. This program is distinct from the B.S. in Mathematics and Physics, which is a parallel education in both mathematics and physics administered jointly by both departments.<br><br>The following table shows the requirements for the Bachelor of Science in Physics with Mathematical Physics Concentration effective for students entering in the class of fall 2022. Students who matriculated to CWRU before fall 2022 should consult the General Bulletin for the year they started at CWRU for program requirements that apply for them. One important change implemented in fall 2019 is a reduction in the total number of credits required for this degree from 127 to 120, leading to a reduction in the number of required open electives from 18 to 11. Those courses in the standard B.S. program that are replaced are shown in red font in brackets and are followed by their replacements, if any.
