Microbiology

Colorado State University

Fort Collins , United States

Microbiology is the study of organisms – many of which are too small to be seen with the naked eye – that are essential in the ecosystem and in industrial processes. Much work in this field is directed toward the cure, control, or eradication of disease in humans and animals. CSU offers the only bachelor’s degree program in microbiology in the state of Colorado and the department operates a number of multi-million dollar research programs. Students participate in undergraduate research, working in the labs alongside world-renowned researchers.

Music

Colorado State University

Fort Collins , United States

This major allows students to study music within a larger context of a liberal arts education. In comparison to majors leading to the bachelor of music (B.M.), less emphasis is placed on studies specific to music. In lieu of fewer credits in music, the student completes a 21-credit option in an area outside of music. In addition, completion of a major paper, lecture/recital, or full recital is required during the senior year.

Physics

Colorado State University

Fort Collins , United States

The Colorado State University Physics major is designed to give each student a good basic background in physics, but allow flexibility in course selection so students can prepare for diverse careers. The Physics major is offered in two “concentrations”, Physics and Applied Physics, which have most requirements in common and lead to the same degree (B.S. in Physics). Two concentrations are offered: Physics and Applied Physics. The former is the standard concentration, and is recommended for students planning to apply to graduate programs in Physics or related disciplines. The latter requires the student to select a specific “field’: there are a variety to choose from, and each has its own menu of associated electives. The Applied Physics concentration is ideal for students who are double-majoring in other technical disciplines, or who anticipate further education towards a career in health professions (including, notably, Medical Physics). All physics majors are required to take a core set of courses in Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics, and Communications. To round out your curriculum, you select courses that fit your personal interests and long-term goals. There are also University breadth requirements (the All-University Core Curriculum) that give your education greater diversity. Substitutions for departmentally required courses can be made upon written approval of the Key Adviser. Waivers of departmental requirements can be authorized only by the Department Chair. Both of these concentrations can be completed in four years, as long as the student starts physics coursework in their second term.
