Physics - Stetson University

Physics from Stetson University is a Campus Bachelor Physics degree that prepares you for a Science career. Interested in investigating the fundamental principles that govern the behavior of the physical universe? Physicists seek to understand phenomena ranging from the infinitesimal to the grand - from how two 'up' quarks and one 'down' quark are held together to form a proton, to how the Big Bang led to the distribution of galaxies observed in the universe today. You might imagine a bewildering number of fundamental principles to explain the diversity in the phenomena displayed in the universe. However, the reality is that it takes only a few. Physics is challenging, but it is also richly rewarding. You will be urged to train your mind to look at the world in a different way, and to become a master at applying logic and advanced mathematics to problems. An undergraduate degree in physics leads to many interesting careers in research and development, manufacturing and teaching. As a liberal arts degree, it also is excellent training for careers in medicine, business, finance and government. Students interested in pursuing graduate level studies find themselves well prepared for a variety of graduate programs including physics, engineering and medical school.
