About BA In Physics & Computer Science in Boston University (BU)

The joint Physics & Computer Science major at Boston University allows students to develop a fundamental knowledge of physics and computer science that they can apply in many fields. A curriculum that carefully combines courses in the two disciplines provides the students with an integrated view of the application of basic physics concepts to computer science and of computer science ideas to the study of physical phenomena. This integration is becoming ever more important as topics such as quantum computing and machine learning are the focus of major industrial developments. The student’s learning takes place in two departments that maintain a rigorous research program in their respective disciplines and will prepare them for a successful career. Physics & Computer Science majors should have advisors in both the Physics department and the Computer Science department.
