Bachelor of Science in Physics

Physics involves the study of natural phenomena observed in our world from the subatomic scale to the vastness of the entire universe. Understanding these phenomena and formulating their physical laws generally lead to scientific and technological advances that drive continued progress of our societies. With a physics degree, students learn to tackle problems in a systematic and methodological way, formulate theories, and perform tests to validate or refute them.The physics program at Florida Tech has set the standard since 1958, successfully preparing students for high-tech careers at top space agencies and research firms. According to the American Institute of Physics, Florida Tech's program is one of the largest in the U.S. in terms of the number of B.S. degrees awarded annually. In addition, Florida Tech ranks in the top 5% of all U.S. institutions awarding undergraduate physics degrees to women.Whether you want to explore the mysteries of anti-matter, aid in the development of laser technologies, or discover new energy sources, a physics degree from Florida Tech gives you the knowledge and hands-on experience you need for a physics career.
