Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Physics] From University of North Texas

Physicists use math, problem-solving experience, analytical skills, and their imaginations to study the structure and interaction of matter and energy — the way things work. This information is important in:

• Energy research such as the development of superbatteries and solar cells
• Medical diagnostics and therapy
• Science-enabled education, law practice, technology business and journalism
• Semiconductor and photonics technology
• Space and atmospheric sciences

Their work often can lead to technological innovations and new basic knowledge that supports engineering and other sciences such as biology and chemistry.

Graduates are employed in various research and management careers in business, education, the armed forces, the government, national laboratories, and NASA. For example, students may work for a company that develops new electronic devices, teach high school physics or work for a research laboratory furthering the exploration and use of space.

A major in Physics can also prepare students for medical school or a graduate program in Physics or a related field.
