Physics Major<br />

The physics program at <strong>HBU</strong> provides a firm foundation in the theoretical and experimental aspects of physics.<br />

In addition, the physics program offers courses for non-science majors: Physics for the Liberal Arts Mind;<br />

Astronomy and the Universe; Physics of Sound. Currently, the faculty is involved in theoretical, experimental,<br />

and applied physics research. Areas of research include biophysics, supersymmetry, and methods of teaching<br />

physics.<br />
