Undergraduate Programs in Physics

Carleton University offers a complete set of undergraduate BSc. Honours programs in Physics including degrees in Applied Physics and in Physics with the choice of either Experimental or Theory streams as well as joint programs with Math, Chemistry and Biology.

The Major program in Physics allows a student to take a minor in another subject area such as computer science or business. In addition, the Physics Department offers an Engineering Physics B.Eng. program in collaboration with Electronics Engineering.

A degree in physics can lead to careers such as employment in the high tech sector, working as a medical physicist helping to plan patient treatment in a clinical setting, developing emerging technologies such as photonics and nanotechnology as well as continuing postgraduate studies in areas as diverse as astrophysics, elementary particle physics, and medical physics, to name a few.
