Join us by becoming a Physics Major!
Our department is a small and close-knit physics community focused on working with undergraduate students. In choosing to major in Physics, we offer our students support to grow as scientists and leaders.
We offer a BS in Physics as well as minors in Aerospace Science and Applied Physics.
We are excited that you are here to learn more about our department. Please reach out to Dr. Hank Yochum (hyochum@citadel.edu, 843-953-6953) if you have any questions about our department or would like to meet to get a tour of our labs.
