Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Physics- Materials Science] From University of North Florida

As a primary constituent of a liberal arts education, we seek to foster an appreciation of the physical world and an understanding of the scientific method of inquiry.

We aspire to install in our students the principles, motivations, comprehension, and vision to prepare them for careers in physics and related fields, for physics teaching careers, and for intellectual growth throughout their lives.

Students in the physics program often participate in the research of our faculty. Currently, physics students can participate in research on:

• the experimental and theoretical properties of magnetic semiconductors and high -Tc superconductors,

• magnetic materials,

• optical studies of correlated electron systems,

• non-linear optical and electrical transport properties of metallic and semiconducting nanocrystals,

• theoretical astrophysics,

• experimental and computational nuclear physics,

• physics history, and

• experimental membrane, interface, and sensor physics.
