Major Requirements
The department offers BA and BS degrees in physics and in physics and astronomy. The BA program is perfect for students looking for a broad overview and the flexibility to double major.
The BS degree is intensive and provides stronger preparation for graduate school in physics or a closely related field. Students planning to pursue graduate studies are strongly encouraged to take advantage of opportunities for independent reading or research in the senior year.
See the degree page for specific degree requirements:
- BS degree in Physics
- BA degree in Physics
- BS degree in Physics and Astronomy
- BA degree in Physics and Astronomy
*Note: Students who have more than one major are expect to fulfill this requirement in each major. Only one upper-level writing course is permitted to overlap between two majors. Each major must have at least one upper-level writing course unique to that major.
