艾姆伯里利德爾航空學(xué)院

The Bachelor of Science in Engineering Physics is designed to produce graduates with the knowledge and skills of both scientists and engineers. Combining the fields of space systems engineering and space physics, this program focuses on the scientific challenges and planning associated with mission design and research related to the exploration of the space environment, thereby providing an excellent stepping stone into the space program. Additionally, the Engineering Physics program’s strong emphasis on fundamental mathematics, engineering and applied sciences also provides the flexibility to enter a broad variety of engineering and physics applications and graduate programs.

Spacecraft Systems Area of Concentration

The Engineering Physics degree with an area of concentration in Spacecraft Systems is specifically designed for students with interests in space physics, applied mathematics, and aerospace engineering sciences. The student MAY declare a Minor in Applied Mathematics. The math courses required within the BSEP may fulfill the requirements of the Applied Math Minor but the student will be held to Minor Policies, specifically they must complete the minor with a 2.00 GPA or higher. Students of this AOC benefit from a broad education in many disciplines of engineering and physics and graduate as versatile systems engineers and space scientists.

Spacecraft Instrumentation Area of Concentration

The Engineering Physics degree with an area of concentration in Spacecraft Instrumentation is specifically designed for students with interests in space physics, applied mathematics, and electrical engineering. The student MAY declare a Minor in Applied Mathematics. The math courses required within the BSEP may fulfill the requirements of the Applied Math Minor but the student will be held to Minor Policies, specifically they must complete the minor with a 2.00 GPA or higher. Students of this AOC benefit from in-depth training in electrical engineering and space physics, and graduate as engineers with instrumentation expertise and space scientists.

Degree Requirements

The Bachelor of Science in Engineering Physics degree program requires 128 credit hours. A minimum cumulative grade point average of 2.0 is needed for all required EP,PS, ES, CEC, and CS courses, including engineering electives. The program can be completed in eight semesters. Students should be aware that several courses in each academic year may have pre-requisites and/or corequisites.
