At the core of every atom and spanning to the farthest reaches of the cosmos exists the domain of physics. By blending creative thinking with methodical analysis, physics students explore nature's fundamental principles, the composition of matter, and how physical systems operate – unlocking many of existence's greatest mysteries. As a physics student, you'll collaborate directly with professors advancing the boundaries of physical understanding. You'll develop such profound knowledge that you might construct telescopes, conduct levitation experiments with produce, publish research, or present findings at academic conferences – all while still an undergrad. Marquette's physics curriculum offers specialized tracks to match your interests, including classical physics, medical physics (clinical or research emphasis), education, mathematical physics, astrophysics, computational physics, or astronomy. Notably, leading financial firms recruit physicists to develop sophisticated market prediction models, especially for exploiting minute price variations.
