Applied Physics Track
The Applied Physics track is aimed at students who plan to seek a technical job with their physics B.S.
This is the most common track for students who have considered an engineering major, but wish to get a broader grounding in physics before seeking employment.
This track has fewer required courses and can be less mathematically intense than the o.
Biological Physics Track
The Biological Physics track aims to give students a thorough grounding in physics, biology and chemistry, preparing them for medical school, graduate school in medical physics, biophysics or bioengineering, or technical careers that combine physical and biological sciences.
This is an exciting growth area of science where students can pursue inter.
Comprehensive Physics Track
The Comprehensive track is aimed at students wishing a thorough grounding in physics.
If you want to experience the breadth of physics, delve into the mathematics underlying physical theories, and be prepared to participate in a career where you are "doing physics" then you should pursue the Comprehensive Track.
If you intend to pursue graduate stu.
