Students in the applied physics program will learn to use scientific instrumentation to make measurements; analyze and make conclusions based on scientific data; design experiments to solve scientific questions; and communicate scientific results in writing and orally. The major prepares students for graduate studies, physics education, or technical careers.
Physics is the study of how the universe works, from the smallest subatomic particles to the largest galaxy clusters. Physics majors at Geneseo develop advanced problem-solving skills and get hands-on experience with state-of-the-art lab equipment that is useful for a wide variety of technical careers.
