Duke’s Physics BS plunges students into discovery—cooling atoms to nano-Kelvin temperatures in quantum labs, mining petabytes from CERN’s ATLAS detector, and simulating supernova turbulence on the Duke Compute Cluster. Course projects launch CubeSat payloads, design metamaterials for cloaking, and apply machine learning to dark-matter searches. A senior research sequence pairs every major with a faculty mentor, often yielding first-author publications before graduation.
