Why Physics?

The Physics minor will give you the opportunity to learn some of the fundamental laws of nature – from the microscopic world of subatomic particles to the scale of the whole Universe. You will develop an understanding of the method of scientific investigation and will acquire substantial quantitative and analytical skills. Completing the minor will be useful for you if you seek a career in a field such as mathematics, computer science, information systems, economics, business, psychology, and other social sciences.

Why Liberal Arts?

Liberal Arts is not reserved for art students only. At AUBG, for example, we have a variety of majors and minors spanning from Business Administration to Computer Science, and we make sure that you get a solid understanding and in-depth knowledge in the field you choose to study. What differentiates Liberal Arts from other types of degrees, however, is that in addition to that, it gives you the freedom to explore, create, practice your skills and connect to others.
