About the BS in Physics Degree

Why Study Physics at Cedarville?

If you have a love for both mathematics and the sciences, Cedarville’s distinctly Christian BS in physics program may be a perfect fit for you. Physics is the study of the physical universe with the aim of understanding it conceptually and modeling it mathematically. At Cedarville, you'll study and expand upon these principles through a biblical lens, and when you graduate, you'll be prepared for graduate school or a career in physics.

As a physics major, you'll delve into the foundational principles of classical mechanics, thermal physics, electromagnetic theory, and quantum mechanics. In addition to your lectures and coursework, you'll put your learning into practice through an internship and a yearlong lab sequence. Tailor your studies to your specific interests with elective coursework in astrophysics, acoustics, and computational physics. Throughout your time in Cedarville's physics program, you'll ponder the significance of the Creator's handiwork and apply that understanding to serve others in your field.

If you're pursuing another major but you're interested in physics, consider adding a physics minor to gain a strong foundation in the field.
