Physics is the fundamental science: the study of matter, energy, and their interactions. Physics is the basis for all science and for all applied science and engineering. Physicists study everything from elementary particles to galaxies, semiconductors to chaos.
The physics department awards several named scholarships: the Nelson S. Ladd Physics Scholarship, the Jean and Henry Unruh Scholarship, the Douglas Knight Memorial Scholarship, and the Ralph and Ina Shenk Scholarship. These scholarships are awarded each spring on the basis of academic merit.
