Program Overview

General Information

Eastern Mediterranean University’s Physics Department was founded in 1986. The department continues to grow through qualified academic staff, active research, and a strong commitment to quality education.

The B.S. Physics Program, reactivated in the 2020–2021 academic year, is designed to provide students with a solid foundation in both classical and modern physics, while developing strong analytical, computational, and experimental skills.

Graduates are prepared for careers in physics, engineering, education, medicine, law, science communication, public service, and research-related sectors. Many students also continue to graduate or professional study.

Education

The program offers a comprehensive foundation in physics beginning from the first year, with lecture and laboratory experience in mechanics and electromagnetism.

Students continue with modern physics, advanced classical mechanics, computational physics, quantum mechanics, thermodynamics and statistical physics, and advanced electricity and magnetism.

Additional study areas include condensed matter physics, cosmology, general relativity, laser physics, nuclear and particle physics, and optics, supported by modern undergraduate laboratories and project-based learning.

Double Major Opportunities

The department supports interdisciplinary study through double major opportunities with Mathematics, Computer Science, and Chemistry.
