Receive a broad but rigorous education in basic scientific principles that govern the behavior of matter and energy in nature. We provide hands-on experience in electronics, optics, nuclear physics, astronomy and solar energy.
International Affairs
Reflect on the global economic and political interdependence of the post-Cold War world. We’ll help you understand how and why countries interact, and how the world has been influenced by history, politics, economics, and culture.
Interdisciplinary Studies
Do your interests span multiple departments and areas of study? Maybe creating your own major is for you. Build a rigorous program of study to investigate interdisciplinary topics, problems, and questions.
