About
*Please Note: Face-to-face/in-person instruction of this program is available ONLY at the main campus in Tallahassee, FL. This program is NOT available via Online/Distance Learning.*
In a job market that values intellectual flexibility and demands technological mastery, a bachelor’s degree in physics and astrophysics is one way to insure a lifetime of relevance. The physics and astrophysics major is based on the physics curriculum, with specialized coursework in astrophysics, such as radiation transport, extragalactic astronomy and cosmology. A B.S. degree in this major opens up a number of career opportunities, including programming, engineering, secondary education and managers in technical fields. Even so, many FSU students pursue graduate work in physics and continue into a variety of scientific fields.
Undergraduates at FSU enjoy the privilege of studying with and researching alongside internationally prominent faculty in astrophysics, atomic physics, biophysics, high energy physics, condensed matter physics and nuclear physics. In addition to working with faculty, FSU’s chapter of the Society of Physics Students provides a platform for physics majors to connect with one another, resulting in a supportive on-campus community and life-long relationships.
The FSU Physics Department also offers majors in: Physics, Physics & Materials, and Physical Science.
Prospective transfer students should contact [email protected] (Arts & Sciences Admissions) with specific questions about admission and mapping requirements.
