Physics (B.S.)

Physics is the study of the natural world, seen and unseen, 并试图回答从最小的可观测粒子到最庞大的星系中物质和能量如何在任何地方工作的问题. As a physics major, you will:

• 获得实验技术，仪器和测量过程的经验 
• 发展数学、计算和分析技能
• 在跨学科的科学项目上合作
• 用科学的严谨来审视现实世界的问题

And, learning doesn’t stop at the classroom. 参与由教师主导的校园或附近的研究项目提供的研究威尼斯人平台 Argonne and Fermi National Labs. Connect with peers in the Society for Physics Students or Women in STEM. Join campus clubs like 空间探索与发展学生计划(SEDS) or Illinois Tech Hyperloop and participate in national competitions. 潜入黑客马拉松和创业挑战 Kaplan Center 把你的理论知识运用到市场上，打造自己的职业生涯. 

为什么在科技大学学习物理?

在威尼斯人平台学习物理为学生的职业生涯做好了独特的准备. Physics majors are working alongside biologists, chemists, engineers, entrepreneurs, ethicists, educators, and policy experts every day, 在基于项目的协作中应用他们的见解. 通过在芝加哥一流的科技大学调查自然世界, 我们的物理专业学生正准备迎接紧迫的科学挑战，从研究实验室到创业公司再到发电厂. 

Program Overview

在威尼斯人平台，我们不只是阅读物理知识，我们还亲自动手. Together, we solve problems and develop practical skills, 解决像构建电子电路这样的挑战, creating computer simulations, and contributing to research projects in energy, medicine, and more.

Career Opportunities

Upon graduation, you’ll have the problem solving, analytical, 以及实用技能，以开展令人兴奋的职业或继续研究生学习，无论是在物理方面, business, or even law school. 应届毕业生在像Microlink Devices这样的公司和组织工作, Constellation Energy, Tesla, Unabridged Software, the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams and the U.S. Senate Space and Science Subcommittee.  

Some common jobs that graduates pursue include:

• Risk Analytic Consultant/Actuary
