物理学是最基础的科学。物理学家试图理解我们周围，我们内部以及超越我们的宇宙中的自然定律。物理学家使用实验，分析和数字技能来解决问题。物理学家在许多领域做出了重要贡献。在上个世纪，物理学家获得了化学，生物学和经济学方面的多个诺贝尔奖。那些对研究事物的运作方式具有天生的好奇心并且擅长数学的人会喜欢物理专业。考虑物理专业的学生应具有强大的科学和数学背景。
Physicists formulate mathematical descriptions of nature that constitute a set of theories to provide the best and most detailed predictive capability in all situations. Physicists also devise and carry out experiments designed to probe the unknown and test these theories. When confronted with experimental evidence that contradicts these theories or are beyond their reach, physicists either revise them to accommodate the new data or else abandon them in favor of better models. Students majoring in physics must have a strong foundation in mathematics and an overwhelming curiosity about how nature works. Generally, physicists tend either to be more primarily focused on doing experiments or to concentrate on making the mathematical models.<br><br>Physics is the most basic and fundamental science. Physicists attempt to understand the natural laws around us, inside us, and in the universe beyond us. Physicists use experimental, analytical, and numerical skills to solve problems. Physicists make significant contributions in many fields. In the last century, physicists have received several Nobel prizes in chemistry, biology and economics.<br><br>Those who have a natural curiosity for investigating how things work and are good at math would enjoy physics as a major. Students considering majoring in physics should have strong science and math backgrounds.
