In addition to its technology-focused curriculum and state-of-the-art laboratories, Georgia Tech’s B.S. in Physics degree program offers several key advantages: 

• Undergraduate research with a world-class faculty and projects with a technological focus.
• Flexible elective course requirements that allow for a degree to be tailored toward individual career goals.
• The Atlanta location: Atlanta, Georgia is one of the most tech-savvy cities in the U.S. and is also home to some of the world’s largest companies. 

As a Physics major, you will develop a basic competence in applying the scientific method, using qualitative and quantitative analysis to investigate physics problems — from the atomic to the astronomical scale. You will develop a strong understanding of how the laws of Physics shape our understanding of the world, and of how mathematical analysis and experimental methods may be used as investigative tools.
