UMD’s BS in Physics provides a thorough grounding in classical mechanics, quantum physics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, and statistical mechanics. Students can pursue focused coursework in areas like condensed matter, quantum computing, particle physics, or astrophysics. With access to top-tier labs and partnerships with NASA Goddard, students gain experience in both experimental and theoretical work. The program prepares graduates for advanced research, tech industry roles, or graduate school in physics or engineering.
