Bachelor of Arts in Physics - Information Technology/Data Science

University of Central Florida

The Department of Physics offers a multi-track program of study leading to the B.S. or B.A. degree, giving students the flexibility to choose a suitable set of courses to prepare for their career goals. The Physics B.S. includes a common core of courses in theoretical and experimental physics that will lead to a broad understanding of the general principles of physics. Different tracks allow students to specialize, applying problem-solving techniques in a certain area of interest this also enhances their qualifications for employment in that area after graduation. After graduation our students are prepared to enter advanced study in physics, engineering, medicine, environmental sciences, astronomy, and other related disciplines. They are also prepared to begin careers as varied as engineering physics, computational physics, and physics education. Undergraduate physics majors benefit from small class sizes and are encouraged to be involved in research and in individually designed senior projects working with a faculty advisor.
