Bachelor of Science [B.S] Physics

  • Physics is the study of the properties of matter, energy, radiation, and their interactions. It is generally regarded as basic to all the natural sciences, and as such is a fundamental part of the professional preparation of biologists, chemists, engineers, and other scientists and technologists. Students interested in becoming astronomers generally obtain undergraduate degrees in Physics.
  • The major program in physics provides the foundations for a broad spectrum of challenging careers in scientific and non-scientific fields. Baccalaureate physics majors find employment opportunities as, for example, research associates in commercial and governments laboratories, sales and engineering representatives for manufacturers of technical products, industrial management trainees, and teachers at the secondary school level.
  • Many of ETSU's graduates in physics continue their studies in graduate and professional schools, where they specialize in a wide variety of disciplines.
  • The upper-level physics courses are typically offered on either a 2-semester or 4-semester rotation. For a preliminary schedule listing which semester each upper level courses will be offered, see the courses page.
  • Students are strongly encouraged to take mathematics at least through ordinary differential equations, and such additional elective courses in astronomy, physics, mathematics, and chemistry as their curriculum will permit.
