Therefore, we are committed to providing a safe and welcoming environment for all students regardless of race, ethnicity, national origin, documentation status, disability, creed, gender or sexual orientation. We promise to engage in ongoing conversations and to listen to voices of people from marginalized groups about actions we can take to make our department more inclusive and to help fight racism.
The Remote Experience for Young Engineers and Scientists (REYES) virtual STEM-H learning experience aims to increase science literacy, inspire and train the next generation of engineers and scientists. We also help increase diversity in STEM fields by lowering barriers of entry for all, including students from underrepresented backgrounds. To date, more than 11,000 learners in 135 countries have registered for REYES. The program includes:
The program's most distinguishing feature is a focus on the fundamentals of physics and mathematics, both experimental and theoretical, which are the foundation of modern engineering and research. By choosing an appropriate concentration, the students may combine this physics base with a solid background in a conventional area of engineering or applied science.
Engineering physics offers you an opportunity to develop a deeper understanding of the fundamentals of rapidly changing technology through an extensive physics and mathematics program in an engineering context. With electives and laboratory courses, you can easily combine this enhanced knowledge with the practical aspects of conventional engineering disciplines.
Engineering physics emphasizes the basic physics underlying most engineering developments, and mathematical tools vital to all engineers and scientists. The program is challenging, designed to stretch the mind.
Engineering physics is for students with a strong aptitude in science and mathematics who wish to apply these fundamental subjects to technical problems without the barriers of the historical divisions among disciplines. Combined with hands-on experience with computers, electronics, and lasers, this is excellent preparation for a broad range of careers.
Engineering physics students may carry out their own research projects during the junior and senior years. Internationally recognized faculty, coupled with sizable research funding, permits the study (both theoretical and experimental) of many subjects, including integrated-circuit technology, wave-function engineering, electron and ion-beam microfabrication, lasers and optics, superconducting devices, plasma physics, thermonuclear fusion, biological physics, materials physics, and x-ray physics.
APSU's BSE degree program in Engineering Physics is accredited by the Engineering Accreditation Commission of ABET. ABET accreditation enhances your employment opportunities and graduation from an is the first step toward professional engineering licensure in the State of Tennessee.
Engineering Physics is the interdisciplinary study of engineering and physics with a particular emphasis on solving complex, real-world problems. The engineering physics curriculum includes an emphasis on engineering design, like all engineering programs, while also including more advanced physics than a typical engineering degree. Engineering physics graduates are well suited to applying state-of-the-art technologies to problems in engineering design and manufacturing where established approaches are insufficient. Graduates of engineering physics typically work in high-tech, industrial, and manufacturing settings on teams with other engineers, scientists, engineering technologists, and management to solve real-world design and implementation problems.
Department faculty have expertise in a variety of areas including Materials Science & Engineering, Mechanical Engineering, and Computational Science. Which assists students with participation in the final capstone experience course as well as completing the mandatory Fundamentals of Engineering exam.
This annual series of lectures is given by scientists, engineers, and other professionals involved in cutting-edge research. Held on Saturday mornings throughout winter, the lectures are geared toward high school students. The program draws more than 300 students, teachers, parents, and community members. Topics are selected from a variety of disciplines.
Join us in person at PPPL, or online via Zoom, with Greg Hammett, principal research physicist in computational science at PPPL, as we trace our path from 1951 when magnetic fusion research began at Princeton University under the code name "Project Matterhorn" to today.
Working at SLAC has given me a deeper sense of purpose beyond my own role in supporting its mission. Our combined curiosity, creativity and sense of shared purpose contribute to this vibrant community."
SLAC employees install the coherent X-ray imaging detector at the Linac Coherent Light Source facility, where scientists use ultrabright X-ray pulses to study biology, materials, chemistry and physics.
Angela Anderson, head of press and publications for SLAC's communications team, interviews two SLAC scientists on transition edge sensors. Traditionally used in dark matter searches and telescopes, these sensors are becoming popular at facilities like SLAC's SSRL synchrotron because of their ability to detect low-energy X-rays.

Engineering physics, or engineering science, refers to the study of the combined disciplines of physics, mathematics, chemistry, biology, and engineering, particularly computer, nuclear, electrical, electronic, aerospace, materials or mechanical engineering. By focusing on the scientific method as a rigorous basis, it seeks ways to apply, design, and develop new solutions in engineering.[1][2][3]
Unlike traditional engineering disciplines, engineering science/physics is not necessarily confined to a particular branch of science, engineering or physics. Instead, engineering science/physics is meant to provide a more thorough grounding in applied physics for a selected specialty such as optics, quantum physics, materials science, applied mechanics, electronics, nanotechnology, microfabrication, microelectronics, computing, photonics, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, nuclear engineering, biophysics, control theory, aerodynamics, energy, solid-state physics, etc. It is the discipline devoted to creating and optimizing engineering solutions through enhanced understanding and integrated application of mathematical, scientific, statistical, and engineering principles. The discipline is also meant for cross-functionality and bridges the gap between theoretical science and practical engineering with emphasis in research and development, design, and analysis.
It is notable that in many languages the term for "engineering physics" would be directly translated into English as "technical physics". In some countries, both what would be translated as "engineering physics" and what would be translated as "technical physics" are disciplines leading to academic degrees, with the former specializing in nuclear power research, and the latter closer to engineering physics.[4] In some institutions, an engineering (or applied) physics major is a discipline or specialization within the scope of engineering science, or applied science.[5][6][7][8]
In many universities, engineering science programs may be offered at the levels of B.Tech., B.Sc., M.Sc. and Ph.D. Usually, a core of basic and advanced courses in mathematics, physics, chemistry, and biology forms the foundation of the curriculum, while typical elective areas may include fluid dynamics, quantum physics, economics, plasma physics, relativity, solid mechanics, operations research, quantitative finance, information technology and engineering, dynamical systems, bioengineering, environmental engineering, computational engineering, engineering mathematics and statistics, solid-state devices, materials science, electromagnetism, nanoscience, nanotechnology, energy, and optics.
Whereas typical engineering programs (undergraduate) generally focus on the application of established methods to the design and analysis of engineering solutions in defined fields (e.g. the traditional domains of civil or mechanical engineering), the engineering science programs (undergraduate) focus on the creation and use of more advanced experimental or computational techniques where standard approaches are inadequate (i.e., development of engineering solutions to contemporary problems in the physical and life sciences by applying fundamental principles).
