This major is administered by the Department of Physics and Astronomy .

Through an affiliation agreement with UW-Milwaukee (UWM), we offer a special dual-degree option for the Physics Major, BS program at UW-Stevens Point (UWSP).  The affiliation agreement makes it possible for you to earn both a Bachelor of Science degree with a physics major from UWSP and a Bachelor of Science in Engineering degree with an engineering major from UWM in a total time of five years for both degrees, with approximately three years (a minimum of 90 credits) at UWSP and then approximately two years (a minimum of 60 credits) at UWM.  UWM offers engineering majors in Biomedical, Civil, Computer, Electrical, Industrial, Materials, and Mechanical Engineering. 

Note: Required courses marked ** below have Math prerequisites. Depending on your placement score, additional courses may be required.
