Physics is the natural science that deals with the properties and interactions of matter and radiation. As such, physics provides the fundamental basis for all other sciences, and for such applied sciences as engineering and the health sciences.
California State University, Fullerton, offers a Bachelor of Science degree in Physics which affords excellent preparation either for graduate study in physics and related areas, or for entry-level positions in industry or government. An optional business emphasis in our BS program is the first in the nation to provide training in entrepreneurship to undergraduate physics majors. We also offer the Master of Science degree in Physics. This degree, which has both an examination and a thesis option emphasizes applications, but also provides opportunities for work in basic physics and physics education.

JOBS
The Physics Department at CSUF offers a high degree of flexibilility in course selection and scheduling. Most required undergraduate courses are offered both during day and in the early evening, and we provide a relatively large number of upper-division elective units. This makes it possible for majors in other sciences, mathematics, engineering, or computer science to complete a second major in physics. Our graduate courses are offered primarily in the late afternoon and evening.
The strength of our programs are their small class sizes and the individual attention that our faculty provides to our students. The Physics Department operates a tutorial service for all students enrolled in its courses both here on the internet and on campus which is staffed by graduate students and full-time faculty members five days a week. The department offers research opptunities for undergraduate students, as well as graduate students, in several areas of basic and applied physics. Many of our research activities are funded by extramural research grants from prestigous agencies and corporations, and many of our undergraduate physics students have co-authored research papers that have been published in leading journals.
