Bachelor of Engineering in Engineering Physics

  • Objectives Engineering physics is concerned with the application of fundamental physical science to the solution of technological problems. Students of this program will be well-versed in material science, applied physics, and electronics. Carleton’s Bachelor of Engineering (B.Eng.) degree program in Engineering Physics has two primary focuses: integrated semiconductor devices, and optical devices and systems. Students will have the opportunity to design their own integrated circuits (ICs), which are manufactured right on campus.
