Engineering Physics Undergraduate Major

The BS in Engineering Physics program prepares students to apply physics to tackle 21st century engineering challenges, and to apply engineering to address 21st century questions in physics.

An Engineering Physics degree prepares students to work in the private sector or in national laboratories at the very forefront of technology, or to pursue an advanced degree in engineering. Engineering Physics majors tend to work on forefront ideas in technology and science, in either industry or academia. Areas might include aerospace, biophysics, medical physics, renewable energy (photovoltaics, battery technology, fuel cells, ...), transportation, quantum information science, semiconductors, or materials development. Careers could also include systems engineering, teaching, medicine, law (especially intellectual property or patent law), science writing, history of science, philosophy of science, science policy, energy policy, government, or management in technical fields.

The Engineering Physics major is great preparation for almost any career, because they teach students how to analyze complex problems and they give students a strong quantitative background that can be applied in any technical field.

Our program is led by a world-renowned professor ranked among the top 2% of global scientists by Stanford. Our faculty are experts in cutting-edge fields like Quantum Computing, Robotics, Space Science, Radar Technology, Black Hole Physics, Radio Telescope. You will enjoy small class with major lectures below 15 students and get special care and supervision by our faculty.

We have close connections to industry. You will have opportunities to experience how academics and experiential education shape successful and innovative engineers through intern experience.
