<p>HM physics courses:
A set of core courses is required of all physics majors; in addition, a variety of elective
courses enables students to select a program to suit their interests and their educational and employment objectives. Laboratory courses in both introductory and advanced physics include experience with electronics, classical and modern optics, solid-state physics, and atomic and nuclear physics. Special courses and reading courses provide the opportunity for study in advanced areas normally offered only in graduate programs.
Each student is encouraged to do individual experimental or theoretical research in an
area of his/her special interest, in conjunction with a faculty member. Current student-faculty research areas include observational astronomy, astrophysics, biophysics, computational physics,field theory, general relativity and cosmology, geophysics, laser and atomic spectroscopy,magnetism, particle physics, quantum optics, quantum theory and solid-state physics. In some of the optional programs, physics majors may elect to do research in biology or chemistry or participate in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics or Physics Clinic team projects.</p>
<p>So, I don’t think you need to worry. There’s plenty to do.</p>
