Bachelor of Science in Engineering Physics - Bioengineering

University of Tulsa

The B.S. degree program in engineering physics is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET.The Bachelor of Science (B.S.) degree in physics provides a strong foundation in physics and mathematics in preparation for a technical or scientific career. Students pursuing the B.S. degree enroll in a more rigorous set of technical classes than for the B.A. degree. The B.S. degree requires two advanced special topics courses in physics. These courses have been incorporated to allow students flexibility in their junior and senior years to focus on specific fields of physics. The B.S. degree in physics provides a broad based technical major and is very adaptable for students in pre-professional programs (medical, law, etc.) and for education majors.Students majoring in physics and engineering physics with an interest in a foreign language may choose to earn dual degrees through the International Engineering/Science and Language Program.The goal of the engineering physics program is to provide the training in physics and engineering to prepare our students for careers in technical fields in industry, higher education, and for lifelong learning. Consistent with this goal, the educational objectives for the engineering physics program are to provide graduates with:The knowledge to successfully enter and complete programs of graduate study in one of several engineering fields as well as in physicsThe skills to be able to function as productive engineering professionals in areas where traditional science and engineering disciplines overlap andAn awareness of the importance of continued professional self-development.
