The College of Engineering and the Department of Physics supervise the following degree program: ENGINEERING PHYSICS, Bachelor of Science in Engineering Physics. The program, which emphasizes flexibility and personalized advisement, is directed toward students who are seriously interested in the interplay between basic physics and work at the frontiers of engineering development. Each degree program must include a distinct engineering specialty which provides a cohesive set of engineering courses leading through upper level engineering design.
In the first semester of the freshman year, the student should consult the advisor in the engineering department in which he or she expects to specialize. No later than the first semester of the junior year, the student must file a degree plan approved by the engineering advisor, the physics advisor, and the Dean of the College of Engineering. The student, in consultation with the physics advisor and the engineering advisor, selects the courses to be used for the electives shown in the curriculum below. This allows considerable flexibility to accommodate the various programs available in the engineering departments.
A student majoring in Engineering Physics must complete all Phase I courses with a minimum grade of C as specified for all engineering majors. The student must then petition the program coordinator to enter phase II. The criteria for the student to successfully complete phase II are determined by the engineering department in which the student has chosen to specialize. The requirements are available from the departments. Successful completion of phase II allows the student to petition for entrance to phase III, once again subject to the stipulations of the specialty department.
