Stevens Institute of Technology Physics Programs

Faculty in the Department of Physics at Stevens Institute of Technology are at the forefront of innovation in the new quantum era. These programs lay a solid foundation of both theory and practice through rigorous classroom instruction and hands-on research experience in one of several state-of-the-art research laboratories. You’ll be immersed in optics and quantum information research early on in your studies, and participate in a six-semester design sequence called SKIL (Science Knowledge Integration Ladder), where you will work on projects that foster independent learning, innovative problem-solving, collaboration, teamwork, and knowledge integration under the guidance of a faculty advisor.

Stevens trains scientists to think like engineers. Stevens’ research-oriented, hands-on educational approach encourages out-of-the-box thinking and imbues an interdisciplinary understanding of the deep relationship between engineering and science.
