Physics
Preparation to enter the workforce in Quantum Science and Quantum Computing or to pursue these topics in graduate school.
Physics, Quantum Science and Computing Concentration, B.S.
A quantum physics degree covers topics including the use of quantum mechanics to understand how light and matter interact, manipulating quantum properties to design new superconductors, and applying quantum principles for creating and programming quantum computers.
Job opportunities in quantum science are growing. The field of quantum information science and engineering (QISE) may revolutionize information technology, computing, and national security. 91大神 is making significant investments in research and education because there is a notable talent shortage in the U.S. Job openings in the field currently outnumber qualified candidates, with employment opportunities available across academia, industry, national laboratories, and government.
You can join the quantum revolution by choosing this concentration while you complete your B.S. in Physics. Courses include quantum mechanics, scientific computing, quantum computing basics and quantum computing applications. Quantum physics degree courses will provide a background to help you become competitive in the quantum science job market, or to allow you to make an immediate impact when entering graduate school for a master鈥檚 or Ph.D.

Physics, Quantum Science and Computing Concentration, B.S.
The job market in quantum science is changing rapidly. Careers in academia or national laboratories often require an advanced degree since we are still learning how to use quantum concepts in design and computing. This concentration allows students to prepare for the quantum job market while maintaining the ability to compete in careers that Physics & Astronomy graduates already enjoy.
