The Department of Physics and Astronomy is dedicated to the dissemination and advancement of physics and astronomy through instruction, research, and outreach.
The department provides rigorous training for students of physics and astronomy and prepares them to be successful, confident, and versatile in their ability to apply physics and astronomy principles within any chosen field. The department also aims to deliver and instill a broad-based understanding of general physics and astronomy principles and practices to the wider university community through our Mason Core (general education) courses. Our student-centric curriculum and instruction use a mixture of traditional and current pedagogical techniques informed by on-going educational research. It is our goal to help students to develop versatility and creativity through analytical practice and problem-solving training in their coursework and faculty-led research projects.
Departmental research focuses on pushing the frontiers of physics and astronomy in a broad range of areas using theoretical, experimental, observational, and computational approaches. The department maintains many active collaborations with scientists across different disciplines within the university community and with other national and international institutions. The department believes strongly in incorporating both graduate as well as undergraduate students in our research programs. It is our goal to see students arrive with enthusiasm and curiosity for physics and astronomy and leave as true scientists ready to conduct their own scientific investigations.
Undergraduate Programs
The department offers the Physics, BS and the Astronomy, BS. Also available are the Physics Minor, the Astronomy Minor, and the Renewable Energy Interdisciplinary Minor.
Undergraduate Research Opportunities
The department offers many opportunities for undergraduate students to become involved with research. Students should consult faculty working on research topics of interest to them, based on their exploration of the department’s website.
Bachelor’s/Accelerated Master’s Degree
Information regarding this program can be found in the Physics, BS/Accelerated Masters section of this catalog.
Graduate Programs
This department offers the Applied and Engineering Physics, MS. The department also supports the Energy and Sustainability concentration in the Interdisciplinary Studies, MAIS program. Additionally, the department offers a Physics, PhD. These graduate programs are strongly supported by the extensive research activities of the faculty, including many collaborations with scientists and engineers at regional and national government laboratories.

Requirements
Writing Intensive Requirement
George Mason requires all undergraduate students to complete at least one course in their major at the 300-level or above that is designated as “writing intensive”. Students majoring in physics fulfill this requirement by successfully completing PHYS 407 Senior Laboratory in Modern Physics (Mason Core), PHYS 410 Computational Physics Capstone (Mason Core), or ASTR 402 RS: Methods of Observational Astronomy (Mason Core) depending upon their concentration (see program requirements). Astronomy majors fulfill the requirement by completing ASTR 402 RS: Methods of Observational Astronomy (Mason Core).
Teacher Licensure
Students who wish to become teachers should consult the College of Education and Human Development section of this catalog and attend an information session early in their undergraduate career. For more information, visit the Graduate School of Education’s website.
