 Return to: Programs by Degree
Physics is the fundamental science, providing a theoretical and mathematical foundation for all other fields of science. The modeling skills students learn by studying physics make it a useful and employable liberal arts field with a wide range of applications to biology, chemistry, medicine and health professions, mathematics, computer science, engineering, business, and law. Physics students are among the highest scorers on the MCAT and the LSAT. A physics minor with a range of available courses will allow a student to choose upper level physics classes with an emphasis on their own interests and future plans, enhancing any liberal arts or professional program with a solid mathematical, computational, and theoretical background in the field.
