Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Physics] From Brandeis University

Our undergraduate program is strongly based on a first-rate research program by our faculty, which gives students the opportunity to participate in cutting-edge research in areas including astrophysics, biological physics, condensed-matter physics, high-energy particle physics, and theoretical physics; topics include string theory, liquid crystals, DNA, polymers, elementary particles, distant quasars and much more. After graduation, our majors go on to prestigious graduate schools in physics and other fields, as well as to employment in a wide variety of private- and public-sector jobs.

The interdisciplinary biological physics major combines mathematics, physics and biology in an unusual and exciting opportunity for undergraduates. This is the perfect major for the student whose abilities tend toward the quantitative sciences of mathematics and physics, but whose enthusiasm and aspirations lean toward the life sciences.
