物理学学士学位（天文学），是天文学专业的物理学学位。它为学生准备在社区组织（包括公共天文台和科学博物馆）中的专业就业以及在工业和研究实验室中的就业做好准备。为天体物理学研究生做准备的学生应选择物理学理学学士学位，并为选修要求选择天文学课程。在应用物理学解决天体物理学问题的过程中，“天体物理学”选项提供了强大的技术技能。学生将培养强大的计算技能，使用望远镜和成像探测器获得实验技能，并通过使用在线天文数据集学习统计和数据分析技能。
The Bachelor of Arts degree in Physics, Astrophysics option, is a physics degree with specialization in astronomy. It prepares students for professional employment in community organizations including public observatories and science museums, as well as employment in industry and research laboratories. Students preparing for graduate work in astrophysics should choose the Bachelor of Science degree in Physics, and select courses in astronomy for the elective requirement. The Astrophysics option provides strong technical skills in the context of applying physics to solve astrophysical problems. Students develop strong computational skills, gain experimental skills using telescopes and imaging detectors, and learn statistics and data analysis skills from working with online astronomical datasets.
