Outcomes Assessment for Physics & Astronomy
Learning Outcomes
The Department offers majors in Physics and Applied Physics. The intended
outcomes are the same. We expect our graduates to be proficient in the
methods of rigorous scientific analysis, relevant mathematical techniques,
and modern computational and laboratory methods. They should have a
broad knowledge of physics, including mechanics, electricity and magnetism,
thermodynamics and modern physics. They should be able to communicate
clearly and effectively at the general and technical levels.
Measures
Measures include examinations, problem assignments and written laboratory
report designed to demonstrate mastery of the concepts and techniques
that form the intended learning outcomes. Additional measures include
first employment after completing degree.
