What are the career opportunities?
There is a great demand in the job market
for physicists and engineers. As the technology is advancing at a very
fast rate, the demand for skilled and high technology positions is increasing
enormously. The graduates of this program will work in all major engineering
industries, lasers, telecommunications, computers, nuclear and space
agencies. The program concentrates on all branches of physics with a
special emphasis on optics, light, and applications.
What are the degree options? The associate degree in Liberal Arts and
Sciences Physics Option is designed for transfer to a physics
or engineering program in a four-year college. It will also help in
pursuing a career in Applied Optics/ Communications/ Laser Technology
and all major branches of engineering after graduation from Camden County
College.
Special requirements All students who apply to Camden County
College are accepted. Those who have two semesters of physics in their
high school will take Computer Literacy (CSC-101120-020) and Introduction
to Photonics and Safety (LFO-101) in place of Physics I and II. All
students will take the new course Applied Optics (PHY-203).
