Engineering Physics, BS
The objective of the Engineering Physics Program is to produce graduates who are prepared to enter applied physics and engineering professions in the fields of electrical, optical, and bio-engineering. The program will prepare and provide competency and professional development to students to begin graduate studies in sciences and engineering. This program offers breadth in core sub-disciplines and depth in at least three areas of specialization.
The program’s educational objectives are:
- Core Competency: Graduates will be well-educated in fundamental concepts and skills in electrical engineering, bioengineering, and optical engineering.
- Practice through Professional Development: Graduates will be able to pursue new career opportunities, update and adapt core fundamental knowledge with hands-on experience, and develop the abilities to compete regionally, nationally, and globally.
- Graduates will be skilled in clear communication and teamwork and capable of functioning responsibly in diverse environments.
