MAJOR/ASSOCIATED COURSES FOR THE
BACHELOR OF SCIENCE DEGREE IN PHYSICS
ENGINEERING PHYSICS

BY LEVEL AND SEQUENCE

The objective of this concentration is to train students in the fundamental and applied aspects of nanophysics and nano-engineering. Current technological trends emphasize the importance of new materials engineered at the molecular level impacting the next generation of electronic devices and advanced medical therapies. Competency in this area requires both theoretical and computational understanding of quantum physics. This concentration requires a minimum of 121 credit hours. Approval for this Concentration requires an overall GPA of 3.0 or better in all physics and mathematics coursework through the first five semesters. The department is developing close ties with leading graduate programs in engineering physics that may facilitate the transfer of successful majors into these M.S./Ph.D. granting institutions.

Courses Marked ALT are Alternate Courses, where the student only needs to register for enough alternate courses to satisfy the credit requirements for that semester. For any questions, please contact your advisor.
