Physics Program at SUNY Plattsburgh
Welcome to the Physics Program Plattsburgh State
At Plattsburgh State, our primary goal is to prepare you for a career in physics, engineering or teaching. Since many career areas in the field of science are multidisciplinary in nature and involve the solution of mission-oriented problems, our program provides you with a solid background in science and mathematics and the opportunity to select courses that fulfill your personal educational and career goals.
The interdisciplinary nature of our curriculum allows you to design a program to match your interests in such areas as mathematics, chemistry, biophysics, geophysics, computer science, and environmental science. You can accomplish this with either double or single major, or simply by adding a minor to your major in another field.
You will acquire the background necessary to enter industrial research laboratories, go on to pursue graduate degrees, or enter the world of education as a middle or high school teacher.
