About the course
Physics is the most fundamental and exact of the physical sciences. Its laws are basic to deep understanding in all of technology, and in many fields of study, such as astronomy, chemistry, engineering, materials science, photonics, biology, medicine, geology, and environmental science. Candidates in the Physics Education major are prepared to teach a diverse curriculum to a diverse student population. The physics education student should work ly with an advisor to be sure that the general education courses taken will provide a strong foundation for the advanced courses in the major. The Department of Physics has growing undergraduate and graduate programs. Yet, its size remains comparatively small, allowing personalized interactions between students with all of its 11 faculty members. Not only do students participate in research projects early on, they often become authors in peer-reviewed publications and present their results in the regional and national conferences and workshops. In addition, our students are highly engaged, they regularly participate successfully in the University Physics Competition and contribute actively to various outreach activities.
