Overview

Physics at Creighton University affords you a deep understanding of nature, a great deal of flexibility in your choice of career, and exceptional strength and stability in the job market. Creighton’s physics program offers a hands-on learning experience that will help you prepare for your next step, whether that’s a job or advanced study.

Key facts

Creighton offers two paths in the undergraduate physics program. The two paths are similar, but they’re designed to prepare you for different areas.

Bachelor of Science (BS) with a Physics Major

The Bachelor of Science (BS) with a physics major provides the necessary preparation for entry-level work as a physicist in government or industry. It also prepares you for entry-level work or graduate study in a wide variety of interdisciplinary science and engineering fields, including astronomy and astrophysics, computational physics, geophysics, planetary science, electrical engineering, nuclear engineering, etc. Also, the program is highly recommended for any career in which a liberal arts degree with a concentration in physics may be desirable–scientific writing and reporting, criminology, patent law, scientific equipment sales, high school physics teaching (when combined with the required education courses), to name just a few. Students should work closely with their advisors in choosing electives to prepare for specific career goals.

Bachelor of Science in Physics (BSPhy) with a Physics Major

The Bachelor of Science in Physics (BSPhy) with a physics major provides a strong foundation for careers in the rapidly developing high-technology industries. It is highly recommended as preparation for graduate work in physics. It also prepares students for graduate study in most engineering fields without requiring the early specialization, typical of undergraduate engineering programs, that can greatly reduce career options.
