Applied physicists use physics, along with other disciplines such as engineering and chemistry, to solve problems. In this newly established degree program, students develop problem solving skills in small class and lab settings, preparing them for post-graduate studies and the workforce.
Overview
Field of Study: Applied Physics
Division: Traditional Undergraduate
Location: Quincy, MA
Options: Major
Degrees: B.S.
Upon graduating with a physics degree, students are prepared to enter the workforce, pursue a professional degree (MD and JD), or apply to graduate school (MS and PhD). The Eastern Nazarene College program covers the breath and depth of the field of physics, while also providing hands-on training in scientific research and communications. Students benefit from individualized attention in small classroom and laboratory settings and opportunities to work with professors on groundbreaking research, even as soon as in their freshman year. The close proximity of the campus to Boston provides students with access to internship opportunities at research labs and companies where our alumni are working in the field.
Career Paths
Over the past five years, 100% of our graduates in physics have gone on to graduate school, professional school, or a full-time job. Alumni have been accepted to Harvard University Law School, Stanford University, University of Massachusetts-Lowell, and Oklahoma State University Medical School, to name a few. Applied physics is a new degree program at Eastern Nazarene College so this is an exciting time to join our Physics Department.
