The Physics BA major is intended to provide students with a strong background in physics, yet allow students flexibility to study other fields as well. It should be of particular interest to students who want to double major or who want to teach science. Students who intend to continue work toward the PhD in Physics are advised to pursue the Physics BS.

A detailed brochure on the major is available from the Undergraduate Office, 1-707A Physics and Astronomy Building.
