Dearborn St. Chicago, IL 60616 312.567.3579 Chair Christopher White Associate Chair Alan Glodowski The undergraduate Physics programs at IIT provide an excellent preparation for a number of professions including law (patent and intellectual property), health physics, business, and research. Graduates are prepared for immediate entry into positions in industrial and government research laboratories, and for graduate study in areas such as biophysics, solid-state physics, or high energy physics. Many undergraduates go on to obtain graduate degrees not only in physics, but in engineering disciplines, the health sciences, or computer science. A student completing a Bachelor of Science (B.S.) degree in one of the Physics programs at IIT will: • Develop exceptional problem-solving ability. • Gain experience with instrumentation and measurement processes. • Develop mathematics and computational skills. • Gain a wide knowledge of physics as it applies both to the everyday world and to understanding nature’s secrets. Students also have the option of completing the following co-terminal degrees that enable a student to complete both degrees in five years: • Bachelor of Science in Applied Physics and Master of Science in Applied Physics • Bachelor of Science in Physics and Master of Science in Physics • Bachelor of Science in Physics and Master of Health Physics • Bachelor of Science in Physics and Master of Computer Science • Bachelor of Science in Physics and Master of Science in Computer Science These programs allow students to complete a dual degree in a shorter time period, to apply through a simplified admission process, and to receive some financial incentives.
