在这里学什么？

The Engineering Physics program is oriented towards students who want to solve both fundamental and applied technical problems. If you are seeking a broad-based engineering education, this program will prepare you for a diversity of careers in a rapidly changing technical world. Whether your interest is in basic research, biotechnology, computer and information sciences, microelectronics, nanotechnology, optical engineering, software development, or any burgeoning field of engineering that requires outstanding technical background, an engineering physics bachelor’s degree is your key to success.

EP offers you an opportunity to develop a deeper understanding of the fundamentals of rapidly changing technology through an extensive physics and mathematics program in an engineering context. With electives and laboratory courses, you can easily combine this enhanced knowledge with the practical aspects of conventional engineering disciplines.

The undergraduate EP curriculum at Cornell is designed to prepare you for a career in research or development in pure or applied science, advanced technology, or engineering. It focuses on the fundamentals of physics and mathematics, both experimental and theoretical, that is at the heart of modern engineering and science and have broad applicability. By choosing a particular concentration, you can combine this physics base with a firm background in a conventional area of engineering or applied science. Engineering physics emphasizes the basic physics underlying most engineering developments, and mathematical tools vital to all engineers and scientists. The EP curriculum encourages students to extend themselves and develop broad skills in the physical sciences. Our curriculum fosters mastery in areas of basic physics and related skills that are critically important. Combined with hands-on experience with computers, electronics, and lasers, this is excellent preparation for a broad range of careers.

EP students may carry out their own research projects during the junior and senior years. Internationally recognized faculty, coupled with sizable research funding, permits the study (both theoretical and experimental) of many subjects, including integrated circuit technology, wave-function engineering, electron and ion-beam micro fabrication, lasers and optics, superconducting devices, plasma physics, thermonuclear fusion, biological physics, materials physics, and x-ray physics.

Engineering physics encourages the development of experimental skills to complement formal coursework, offering five experimental courses in the areas of computers, lasers, optics and electronics.

About half of EP graduates take positions in high-technology industries, at starting salaries at the top end of the scale for engineers. The others go to graduate school or to professional programs in engineering, law, medicine, and business administration; engineering physics reputation makes graduates extremely attractive candidates for graduate admission and financial support in many different disciplines.

Most EP graduates develop careers in industry as staff engineers or scientists or technical directors; in research and administrative positions in nonprofit and national laboratories; as professors in almost all engineering and scientific disciplines at major universities; as consultants; or as physicians or lawyers.
