Why study physics?
Physics is the most fundamental of sciences. All objects, from the smallest elementary particle to the universe itself, obey the laws of physics. As a physics student, you will learn how to design and run experiments, develop theories and simulate nature on computers. You will have the opportunity to work on a research project under faculty guidance. A physics degree will provide you with critical thinking, problem-solving and programming skills that are valued in a variety of careers.
The department offers an undergraduate BS degree in physics as well as graduate MS and PhD degrees. For questions about the undergraduate program, please contact Dr. Thomas Vojta, chair of the physics department, at vojtat@mst.edu. For graduate admission, please contact Dr. Alexey Yamilov, director of graduate admissions, at yamilov@mst.edu.
