The BS program in Physics at RIT offers a broad curriculum which prepares students for employment in research, industry, and teaching after graduation, as well as for graduate study in physics and related areas. The structured core curriculum provides a broad and solid foundation in experimental, computational, and theoretical physics, with an emphasis on laboratory training and the development of analytical and problem-solving skills. The curriculum is also sufficiently flexible so that the student can plan a minor or course sequence in such areas as astronomy, optics, materials science, mathematics, biological or chemical sciences, engineering, computer science, or business.
Sincerely,
Dr. Michael Kotlarchyk
