The Dual Bachelor of Science Degrees in Physics and Mechanical Engineering (B.S. Physics / B.S.M.E.)
To obtain a dual B.S. degree in Mechanical Engineering and Physics, an undergraduate student must complete all requirements for the B.S.M.E. degree as established by the Department of Mechanical Engineering. In addition, the student must complete 12 hours of upper division physics courses specified by the Department of Physics and Optical Science. To meet the upper division physics requirement, students must complete the following courses: PHYS 3141 (Introduction to Modern Physics), PHYS 4231 (Electromagnetic Theory I), PHYS 4241 (Quantum Mechanics I), and 3 elective hours chosen from a list of approved courses available from the Department of Physics and Optical Science. A B.S. in Physics under this program will be awarded at the same time as the B.S.M.E. The B.S. Physics degree will not be awarded in advance of the engineering degree.
Approved Electives for B.S. Physics / B.S. M.E. - PHYS 3900 (Senior Project) Prior approval of Undergraduate Studies Committee required.
- PHYS 4140 (Nuclear Physics)
- PHYS 4232 (Electromagnetic Theory II)
- PHYS 4242 (Quantum Mechanics II)
- PHYS 4271 (Waves and Optics)
- PHYS 4281 (Advanced Laboratory in Modern Optics).
