- Applied Physics major studies encourage solving problems using a combination of physics, engineering, and mathematics.
- The student's major course work provides fundamental studies in classical mechanics, electromagnetism, modern physics, statistical and quantum physics, and laboratory experimental methods.
- Hands-on projects challenge students to combine physics and math theories with engineering design and apply them to real-world problems.
- Students might use all their learn about optics to craft better telescope components or to build an improved microscope.
- They might also use their understanding of programming and machining to develop a particular or improved software product.
