Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Physics] From Bethel University

Physics is the foundation for understanding the world around us and the laws that govern the universe. It?s the most fundamental science and the basis of many other fields. For this reason, physics leads to world-changing discoveries in technology, medicine, and energy, to name just a few applications.

Because physics is so fundamental to understanding science and the world, it provides many opportunities for careers, graduate study, and theoretical and applied work.

Many graduates go on to earn an advanced degree in engineering, but some decide to pursue graduate work in other fields such as medicine, chemistry, mathematics, computer science, and even forestry.

Some grads continue in physics, receiving Ph.D.s from universities such as Yale, Princeton, MIT, Illinois, and Minnesota. Many have later obtained notable post-doctoral positions with JILA (Joint Institute for Laboratory Astrophysics), NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology), Caltech, IBM, Wisconsin?Madison, Brookhaven National Lab, and an NSF International Research Fellowship.
