Students who choose to major or concentrate in physics take courses that prepare them for graduate studies, teaching, medical school and industry careers. The low student-to-faculty ratio means students are offered many opportunities to interact with professors in courses, laboratories and research.
Students that select to pursue a BS in Physics enjoy the additional electives in various cutting edge fields of physics. They also benefit from the required research experience, thesis and presentation at the Texas Section American Physical Society meeting or similar field specific meeting. These research experiences recently involve faculty at UD, other universities across the US, national labs and international collaborations, as well.
