Physics

Return to {$returnto_text} Return to: Majors and Minors

A minor in physics offers coursework covering the basic principles and scientific techniques of physics. It includes advanced instruction in atmospheric physics, thermodynamics, classical mechanics, and modern physics.

As the broadest of the sciences, physics offers rigorous problem-solving training that is applicable across the disciplines. A minor in physics is a particularly appropriate complement to majors or advanced studies in biology, chemistry, meteorology, geology, engineering, and computer science.
