Bachelor of Science (Honours) in Physics

Program Overview

Answer the big questions and study to further our understanding of the physical world. Physics is the most fundamental of the sciences. It is the study of matter and energy, space and time, and of the relations between them. Through the study of forces, matter, radiation, energy and all of their interactions, physicists seek to understand the world we live in. Advances in physics often lead to technological advances and sometimes influence the other sciences.

The study of physics will provide you with the tools to shape the future, to determine solutions to new and evolving challenges, some of which we don't even know exist yet.

We offer a unique learning environment with one-on-one interaction with Physics professors.
In fact, the student-to-professor ratio in the Department of Physics at Laurentian University is currently ranked as one of the best in the country. 

Our students are immersed in an international and vibrant physics community and can do world-class research beginning in the first year on campus or in nearby facilities that include SNOLAB and the Northeast Cancer Centre, Health Sciences North. With all these reasons, our students have the best chance of meeting and exceeding their academic goals.

More information about the on-going research and activities can be found on the website of the Department of Physics

PROGRAM HIGHLIGHTS

  • Three or four-year (Honours) programs lead to a Bachelor of Science in Physics
  • Physics faculty members are engaged in astroparticle physics research at SNOLAB, a world-class and world-renowned research facility that helps scientists understand the origins and nature of the universe. This lab, located 25 kilometres from the main Sudbury campus and two kilometres underground, is one of the world’s premier laboratories for the study of dark matter, neutrinos and supernovas. Interested students can complete a fourth-year undergraduate thesis in this area.
  • Interested students can include 12 credits of health physics courses and complete a fourth-year undergraduate thesis in this area.
  • The program features courses in electricity and magnetism, mechanics, thermodynamics, theoretical physics, and quantum mechanics.
  • Research funding provides for summer job opportunities in particle astrophysics, medical physics, and theoretical physics. Part-time research assistantships are also possible during the terms.
