Physics
Discover how the universe works and develop practical skills in problem-solving, experimentation, and critical thinking with UFV’s Physics programs.
Physics students explore research in areas like particle physics while gaining skills for future careers.
Dive into the foundations of the universe through hands-on experiments, mathematical modeling, and critical inquiry. At UFV, Physics students build a deep understanding of mechanics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, and modern physics, while developing experimental, computational, and analytical skills. You’ll have opportunities to engage in undergraduate research, interdisciplinary projects, and collaborations with faculty. Whether you envision graduate studies, work in applied science, engineering, or technology, our supportive community and small class sizes will help you reach your goals.
The Physics and Mechatronics faculty were extremely supportive and greatly contributed to my success in both programs.Not only did the small class sizes make learning more personal and participatory but it made the student community tight-knit and my time at UFV was more enjoyable because of it.
