Bachelor of Science with Major in Physics

St. Francis Xavier University

Physics is an incredibly diverse field, from fundamental research to practical applications of the latest technology. You’ll learn in a department where students and faculty are dedicated to teaching, learning and active research. Students receive a world-class degree in a supportive environment where questions are welcomed, discussion encouraged, and opportunities presented to get involved in paid research projects. In the wider physics community, our students are authors on research publications and attend national and international physics conferences. Our students have gone on to work and have become leaders in industry, law, medicine, education and academia. Despite (or maybe because of) our small size, a physics degree from StFX is recognized nationally and internationally for its high quality. Physics can be challenging but we have a wide variety of degree streams to suit the needs of our students.
