About the Physics: Applied Physics Concentration Bachelor’s Program
The applied physics concentration is a variation of the professional concentration for students who wish to pursue more applied work, such as graduate study or employment in engineering fields. It requires the same coursework as the professional option, with an additional 12 required hours of an applied specialty. Majors in this concentration are strongly encouraged to minor in mathematics and to devote time to undergraduate research.
Total Hours: 120
Applied physics concentration students are strongly encouraged to minor in mathematics, as assumed in the curriculum above.
* Choose from the university’s core curriculum .
** Physics electives are offered in alternate years. Consult the current Physics Undergraduate Handbook at www.phys.ttu.edu for current scheduling.
Foreign Language
A student must complete 6 hours at the sophomore level or above in a single language. The prerequisite for all sophomore language courses is credit for the freshman level. This credit can be determined through a credit by examination. The score attained on the exam will determine whether the student is placed in a second-year course, a 5-hour review course, or in some cases the first or second semester of a beginning (first-year) language course. See Arts and Sciences General Degree Requirements for further explanation.
Multicultural
Choose from the university’s Multicultural Requirement list. Choose a course that also fulfills the core Social and Behavioral Sciences requirement.
Engineering or Applied Physics Elective
These courses should be selected in consultation with, and approved by, the physics undergraduate advisor.
