Students focus on the scientific challenges and planning associated with mission design and research related to the space exploration. However, with its strong emphasis on engineering fundamentals, the curriculum not only creates a gateway into the space program, but also a foundation for a wide range of engineering and physics careers and graduate programs.

The Bachelor of Science in Engineering Physics is designed to produce graduates with the knowledge and skills of both scientists and engineers.

Combining the fields of space systems engineering and space physics, this program focuses on the scientific challenges and planning associated with mission design and research related to the exploration of the space environment, thereby providing an excellent stepping stone into the space program.

Additionally, the Engineering Physics program?s strong emphasis on fundamental mathematics, engineering and applied sciences also provides the flexibility to enter a broad variety of engineering and physics applications and graduate programs.
