UIUC’s Astronomy BS propels students into an era of multimessenger astrophysics and big-data sky surveys. Foundational physics courses merge with astrophysical dynamics, stellar evolution, cosmology, and observational techniques using campus observatories and global telescope networks. Students analyze terabytes of data from the Vera Rubin Observatory and collaborate on gravitational-wave research at the NCSA’s Blue Waters supercomputer. Graduates pursue PhDs, aerospace-industry R&D, and science communication careers illuminating humanity’s cosmic origins.
