• The bachelor’s degree in Physics program coursework focuses on scientific investigation, laboratory experience and research opportunities to give students hands-on experience in the field of physics. They will work with faculty members on research projects, which may result in their work being published in journals.
  • Faculty members conduct research projects in a variety of areas, including complex fluids, materials science, ultra-fast physics, nuclear physics, and observational astronomy.
  • The physics and astrophysics department offers a five-year joint program in engineering with the Illinois Institute of Technology (IIT). Upon completion of the bachelor’s degree in the physics program, they will earn a Bachelor of Science in Physics with a concentration in Engineering Physics from DePaul and a Bachelor of Science in Aerospace, Computer, Electrical or Mechanical Engineering from IIT.
