Physics is the study of natural phenomena, matter, energy and the interaction between them and unlocking the secrets of the universe. Physicists' discoveries, including solid-state transistors, lead to new technology and a broader understanding of the universe. A Physics major teaches you to ask fundamental questions, and then answer those questions through observation and experimentation. Physics is crucial to understanding the world around, inside and beyond us. It is the most basic and fundamental science.
