Engineering Physics

Students who love both engineering and physics can pursue an engineering physics major offered jointly by the Department of Engineering Sciences and the Department of Physics and Astronomy.

The Engineering Physics Major consists of a 5/5 split of 10 courses between Engineering Sciences and Physics. These courses include three required core courses, two electives in engineering, and two electives in physics. Students wishing to pursue the B.E. degree are advised to choose an Engineering Sciences course as an elective. Students majoring in Engineering Physics also complete a culminating experience, either as one of the two electives involved in the major or as an additional course.
