<p>Well basically Engineering physics is the major I look forward to doing. I was just wondering for those EP majors what to expect. What have you noticed is different from pure physics classes/Pure Eng classes and EP? Would you recommend EP for the future as in does it have a lot of career choices?</p>
<p>I’m very interested in this as well. I’m wondering how competitive an engineering physics degree is for pursuing graduate studies in either engineering or physics. I would assume that a more specialized degree would be better, but at this point my interests are too broad.</p>
<p>Bump for answer.</p>
<p>I’d love to hear an answer to this!</p>
<p>As far as grad school is concerned, your specific coursework will be more important than what your major is called. For a graduate physics program, I’d guess you would want to have at least the following…?</p>
<ul>
<li>Classical Mechanics</li>
<li>Electricity and Magnetism</li>
<li>Quantum Mechanics</li>
<li>Statistical Mechanics</li>
<li>Laboratory classes</li>
<li>Linear algebra</li>
<li>Differential Equations</li>
</ul>
<p>Ideally, you’d want more than this. Additional related courses could only help. Then, just demonstrate an interest in and some capacity for research and you should be alright.</p>
