Physics is the study of matter and energy and their interaction with one another. Physics lies at the core of many scientific fields. A baccalaureate in Physics encourages curiosity and fosters the ability to research; creatively solve problems; and evaluate information methodically, accurately, and clearly. Many graduate go on to careers in astronomy, environmental studies, medicine, computer science, and patent law. A Bachelor's degree also provides excellent background for students who want to pursue graduate training in applied physics at either government or industrial laboratories.
