Why does dark energy accelerate the universe’s expansion? Georgia Tech’s Astrophysics BS invites students to seek answers through a blend of rigorous physics, high-performance computing, and observational campaigns. Majors work with faculty on projects using the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, LIGO gravitational-wave data, and balloon-borne infrared detectors. A required remote-observing practicum leverages global telescope networks, giving undergraduates the thrill of scheduling real-time observations and crunching terabytes of celestial data to unveil the universe’s origin stories.
