PHYSICS
ASSOCIATE IN SCIENCE IN PHYSICS FOR
TRANSFER DEGREE
(MAJOR
#R.3664.AS-T)
Physics is the study of the relationship between mass and
energy and provides a broad range of knowledge and problem
solving skills that are useful in many disciplines. The program
at Reedley College emphasizes topics that are encountered in
our everyday lives: linear and rotational motion in two and
three dimensions, forces, gravity, fluids, waves, sound, heat,
electricity, magnetism and light. The following topics are also
briefly introduced: special relativity, atoms, introduction to
quantum mechanics and the cosmos are also included.
A physics major degree generally transfers to a four-year
institution to complete a bachelor’s degree. Physics graduates
at the bachelors’ level are qualified for a variety of technical
positions with government or industry, and they are also well
prepared to enter a graduate program in any other science or
in engineering. Physics majors are welcomed into professional
programs such as law, business, or medicine. Teaching at the
high school level with a bachelor’s degree or at a two- year
college with a masters’ degree are additional career options for
the physics major. For the physicist who obtains the Ph.D.,
experimental or theoretical research and/or teaching at the
university level or basic research in government or industry
are options for gainful employment.
