The degree of Bachelor of Science with a major in physics is designed for those who plan to study physics in graduate school, who wish to pursue another technical field at the graduate level, or who wish to pursue a technical career in industry.
The degree of Bachelor of Arts, major in physics, provides a basic core of physics courses and is most appropriate for a student pursuing dual majors where the second major may be engineering, mathematics, computer science, or education with an emphasis on physical sciences.
