Bachelor of Arts in Astronomy (STEM)
Program Overview
Our faculty members in the Department of Astronomy and Physics rival those at other, major universities. They are actively engaged in leading-edge research with NASA and colleagues around the world. Undergraduates are able to collaborate on research starting their freshman years.
Astronomy is closely tied to physics, mathematics, geology and biology. UToledo undergraduates study the origins of the Earth and other planets. They learn about humans’ place in the universe, our prospects for the future and the importance of physical sciences.
Highlights
- Renowned faculty. Our physicists and astronomers at UToledo are equal to those anywhere in the U.S. Five of our faculty members have been elected fellows of the American Physical Society for their significant research. This international honor is bestowed on only a small fraction of members. Five are endowed professors. Others have been named UToledo outstanding lecturers and researchers.
- A head start on research. Get involved in research as early as your freshman year. Many schools offer research opportunities only to grad students. UToledo undergraduates publish in peer-reviewed journals and present their research at conferences.
- A national reputation. It’s not just our expert faculty and cutting-edge research. UToledo also is known for its active public-education programs at the Ritter Observatory, Ritter Planetarium and Brooks Observatory.
- Learn outside the classroom. UToledo undergrads are encouraged to:
- Join our award-winning chapter of the Society of Physics Students. The group offers a speaker series, networking, a community outreach program and social activities.
- Intern at UToledo’s Ritter Planetarium. The on-campus facility offers public programs during the weekends.
- Join our observing team on clear nights.
- Low student-to-faculty ratio. Our students work one-on-one with faculty members. These close relationships can lead to great recommendation letters for jobs or graduate school.
- Masters and PhD programs in astronomy. These graduate programs benefit undergrads by drawing passionate grad students and high-caliber faculty and resources to UToledo.
- State-of-the-art facilities — labs with the latest equipment; the Ritter and Brooks observatories; and the Ritter Planetarium.
