Undergraduate Applied Physics Degree Overview

In addition to its technology-focused curriculum and state-of-the-art laboratories, Georgia Tech’s B.S. in Applied Physics degree program offers several key advantages: 

• Undergraduate research with a world-class faculty and projects with a technological focus.
• Flexible elective course requirements that allow for a degree to be tailored toward individual career goals.
• The Atlanta location: Atlanta, Georgia is one of the most tech-savvy cities in the U.S. and is also home to some of the world’s largest companies. 

As an Applied Physics major, you will develop knowledge of the physical sciences and mathematics, and be afforded a hands-on approach to electronics, computation, and instrumentation. The Applied Physics major differs from the Physics major — with core course requirements in computational physics and electronics (and their associated laboratories), as well as the possibility of an engineering-based capstone project.
