Physical Sciences
Physics is the study of matter and energy — the building blocks of the physical universe — and of interactions between the two. Physicists describe these interactions using the most fundamental laws and principles. As a discipline, physics forms the foundation for understanding how things work, including the basis for engineering concepts and real-world connections to mathematics.
