Why study Physics and Engineering at UW-Stevens Point?<\/h3>

You can earn both a Bachelor of Science degree in physics from UW-Stevens Point and a Bachelor of Science degree in engineering from UW-Milwaukee in a total time of five years! Approximately three years (roughly 90-95 credits) of the program are spent at UW-Stevens Point and approximately two years (roughly 60 credits) at UW-Milwaukee. Note: The start of the five-year timeline corresponds with enrollment in MATH 225 (Calculus I) at UW-Stevens Point. There are many variables that affect the time to degree for each individual student.<\/p><\/div>
