Biola’s engineering physics program will equip students with foundational knowledge in a wide range of real-world topics, preparing them to excel in graduate school and their professional careers. Students will learn about present-day topics such as:

• Chemical kinetics, equilibrium, thermodynamics and electrochemistry
• Three levels of calculus, including exploration of infinite sequences, inverse trigonometric functions and curves and surfaces in three-dimensional space
• Physics topics including Newtonian mechanics, wave theory, geometric optics and relativity
• Computer techniques in science and engineering using MATLAB and LABVIEW computer tools for data analysis
• Analysis of stress, strain and deflection of mechanical elements due to tension
• How to consider materials for product designs
• 3D printing
• Microprocessor programming
