BSc Honours in Computational Physics

The degree provides a wide background in computational and analytical skills applicable to both academia and industry. Upon completion of the degree, students may opt to pursue higher degrees in physics with a research focus in computational physics or choose a career in an industry where the combination of analytical and computational skills are put to practice e.g. software, manufacturing and banking industry. A total of 120 credit hours are required to complete the degree program and during the last two years, a special emphasis is placed on all core areas of computational physics. Students also require completing a final year research project under the close supervision of a faculty member with a focus on a problem related to a major research interest of the department.

Entry Requirements

A minimum GPA of 2.00 at the end of Level II for all registered academic courses along-with a GPA of 3.00 for each PH, AM and CS core courses.
