Q & A

   What does the Physics Program entail?

   What do physicists do?
   Physicists work in industrial and government sectors, with jobs from research to production, even the financial and computer industries. Physicists are well suited to tasks that require stepwise problem solving skills. These skills include analytical and logical thinking, moderately advanced math skills, good observational and communicational skills.

   How long will it take to graduate with a Bachelors of Science in Physics from ISU?
   The length of a student's education is dependent on the pace with which a student passes requried courses. However, if a student strictly follows the program outlined in the ISU Undergraduate Catalog, as approved by an advisor, it can be completed in eight regular semesters (Fall/Spring).
   A Masters of Science in Physics will take additional time. Please contact an advisor for more assistance.
