Physics Programs
Physics—where innovation and understanding become a unified front.
Did you know that physicists developed the underlying technology of cell phones, computers, and tablets? They also created the image sensors used in cameras, magnetic storage in hard drives, the MRI—the list goes on, but you get the picture.
