Bachelor's Degree in Physical Science

B.A. or B.S. in physical science

Physical science is a multidisciplinary major that deals primarily with nonliving matter. It concerns itself with the theoretical and observable natural phenomena of our world and universe.

 

The K-State difference

The College of Arts and Sciences interdisciplinary majors provide options for those who have not chosen a specialized major. They offer opportunities to create individual fields of emphasis for those who want to pursue multidisciplinary solutions to the world’s complex problems.

Cutting across a variety of physical science disciplines, it intentionally trades depth of learning for broader scope of inquiry. Students work closely with their adivser to best meet individual their needs, interests, and career goals.
