Engineering Physics:

Engineering physics (EP) is an academic degree, which unlike other engineering degrees does not necessarily include a particular branch of science or physics instead, it is meant to provide a more thorough grounding in applied physics of any area chosen by the student (such as optics, nanotechnology, mechanical engineering, electrical engineering, control theory, aerodynamics, or solid-state physics).

The Program in Engineering Physics provides students with a fundamental knowledge of physics, together with problem-solving skills, and an understanding of engineering, is designed to address the needs of students seeking innovative careers in today's technological age. In addition, it allows students to keep their options open between physical sciences and engineering.
For engineering majors, in addition to courses in those subjects fundamental to the student's field of interest, the program requires courses in quantum mechanics and encourages study of subjects as electromagnetism, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, condensed matter physics, mathematical physics, complex analysis and partial differential equations.

Career Prospects:

Engineering physicists perform research and development in high-technology industries in the fields of telecommunications, microelectronics and micro devices, lasers, and novel materials. Additionally thorough training provided in fundamentals and applied technology, increasingly; today's graduates are exploring other burgeoning fields, such as biotechnology, nanotechnology, communications technology, computer design, and software development. Graduates can also enter into advanced degree programs to conduct research, and instruct the next generation of physicists.

An engineering physics major comes in handy for a range of job opportunities, including positions in research and development (“R&D”) at high-technology industries as well as jobs in national laboratories and universities. Further career development may lead to a position as staff engineer, scientist, or technical director.
