Welcome to the SRU physics department homepage.

The SRU physics department offer several options of study leading to a B.S. or B.A. in Physics as well as two Pre-engineering dual degree options. The goal of these major programs is to provide the foundation for training physicist/ engineers, and also to develop in our students the vitals skills that are required in the 21st century workplace. All the major programs that we offer are designed to allow technical specialization and flexibility to its graduates. Many possible career paths are available to physics majors; the department's curriculum provides the training necessary to most of these options....more
