Physics
Rowan's Physics major balances general physics courses that develop analytical skills needed for any career direction with more advanced courses in highly technical areas. The department also offers coursework in astronomy and astrophysics.
Biophysics
The Biophysics major prepares students for medical school, graduate school in biophysics and for careers in medical industry. While a bit more specialized than the B.S. in Physics, there is still enough broad scientific learning such that the degree can also lead to similar post-graduate paths.
CUGS: Photonics
Designed to give you the necessary background for a career in optical design, instrumentation design and application use, and laser-based communication systems.
CUGS: Health Physics
Designed to give you the necessary background for a career in the medical industry in a field of applied physics in areas of radiation and radiation protection.
Materials Science
An interdisciplinary minor combining Chemistry, Engineering, and Physics.
Ph.D. in Materials Science & Engineering
MSE lies at the intersection of physics, chemistry, and engineering and seeks to develop and characterize materials for the next generation of technological advances.
Astronomy
An Astronomy minor is available to any student desiring a more advanced study astronomy and astrophysics with the requisite quantitative skills and background.
