  The American Institute of Physics maintains this web site where they list potential employers, by state.


Physics Information for Freshmen

  The Physics Department offers two introductory course sequences. Physics 151 and 152 are calculus-based courses with calculus co-requisites. Physics 103 and 104 are algebra-based courses designed primarily for students interested in health careers. While the interdisciplinary majors can be begun with this sequence, Physics 151 and 152 provide the best foundation for further study in physics.


Physics Major

  In your first semester you should enroll in:

  It is possible to major in physics without taking physics in your first year. However, such a program would not prepare you for graduate school and could cause scheduling problems in your junior or senior years.
