Bachelor of Science in Engineering Physics

University at Buffalo - SUNY

Many of the complex problems you’ll find throughout the world need interdisciplinary solutions, which is why many students choose a major that combines multiple fields. That’s exactly what you’ll find with engineering physics, which is designed for students who want an in-depth understanding of fundamental physics-plus the problem-solving skills of an engineer. As an added bonus, engineering physics lets you keep your options open between physical sciences and engineering, whether you’re going to grad school or straight into your career.What will I learn?Engineering physics is a combination of electrical engineering and physics, which means you'll typically start by taking courses and labs such as calculus, chemistry and physics, as well as some general curriculum classes. You’ll then move on to more advanced physics and math courses, gaining new computational skills and experience that lets you solve increasingly complex problems. In your junior and senior years, you’ll appreciate a combination of fundamental electrical engineering classes, upper-level physics classes and electives, all designed to prepare you for whatever comes next.
