About the Program

Physics for Business Applications is a two-year program (including an industrial or commercial internship) designed to attract recent graduates or technically trained workers in business and industry who hold a bachelors degree in physics, applied mathematics, or a physical science (chemistry, electrical engineering, aerospace engineering).

The curriculum for this degree program consists of three parts. The first is a core of physics courses which are selected to bring the student up to an increased skill level in basic areas. The second part of the curriculum is a special track in business with an emphasis in one of several areas such as: Corporate Finance; Information Systems; and Operations Management. The third part of the curriculum includes discussions of emerging technologies and a Capstone Experience which may include internships for those not working in industry. Graduates from this program should expect enhanced career opportunities within the business and finance communities and in firms engaged in the development of new technology.
