物理学是科学的分支，它从最基本的层面研究物质，能量和时空的性质。它为所有自然科学和工程学科奠定了基础。物理学带来了相对论，量子力学和大爆炸理论等革命，深刻地改变了人类看待宇宙的方式。帕克斯学院（Parks College）的物理学学士学位强调物理学及其在工程，计算机和科学等领域的应用，还提供了参与教师研究的机会。物理课程的学生通过数学，计算机科学和物理课程的学习，在分析，计算和实验室技能上奠定了坚实的基础。物理学课程包括古典力学，量子力学，电和磁学，热力学和统计力学以及光学，电子学和现代物理学的课程。
Physics is the branch of science that studies the nature of matter, energy and spacetime at the most fundamental level. It provides a foundation for all the natural sciences and engineering disciplines. Physics has brought such revolutions as relativity, quantum mechanics and the Big Bang theory, profoundly altering the way mankind views the universe. The B.S. in physics from Parks College stresses physics and its applications in areas such as engineering, computers and the sciences, and also includes opportunities to participate in faculty research. Students of the physics program gain a solid foundation in analytical, computational and laboratory skills through course work in mathematics, computer science and physics. The physics curriculum includes courses in classical mechanics, quantum mechanics, electricity and magnetism, thermodynamics and statistical mechanics, as well as optics, electronics and modern physics.
