Course Content

A physics curriculum provides the knowledge of fundamental science needed for a deep understanding of these ideas. A degree in physics opens a rich diversity of options to the graduating student. Approximately one-half of physics graduates go on to graduate school. Those not attending a graduate program enter employment in physics or such related fields as electronics, computers, engineering, and teaching.
Rutgers-Camden’s Department of Physics offers a flexible degree program to its majors. Students will be prepared for both graduate study and industrial employment. In the classroom, they will receive well-rounded exposure to classical and modern physics. For practical training, the department is equipped with advanced materials characterization equipment, lasers, optics, and vacuum equipment. Students with an interest in Computational Biophysics can access high performance computing facilities under the supervision of faculty.
