Have you ever wondered what makes the Universe tick? Physics is a science that deals with the interactions between matter and motion. Physicists study everything from sub-atomic particles to star-studded galaxies to try and understand the physical laws and relationships that govern the known universe.
In addition to standard fields of physics research and development, physicists are in demand in interdisciplinary fields like engineering, meteorology, nanotechnology, remote sensing, computer development, geology, geophysics, and health and medical technology.
According to the Canadian Association of Physicists, the employment rate for individuals with undergraduate physics degrees is 98%, and 99% for those with graduate degrees. A Bachelor of Science degree in Physics is also a gateway to advanced degree programs in physics, astrophysics, engineering, chemistry, mathematics, medicine, and business administration (MBA).
