Physics - BS College of Creative Studies

The CCS Physics major helps self-motivated students develop a wide and deep understanding of physics, preparing them for academic or professional careers in their area of interest or related fields. As a student in the program, you’ll be trained to think deeply and critically about physics thanks to small class sizes and sustained student-faculty interaction. You’ll be encouraged to take advantage of UCSB’s many research opportunities, and students often make significant contributions during their undergraduate careers. You’ll enjoy academic freedom and work with faculty advisors to develop your course of study.
