You’re interested in engineering methods, but you love the sciences. You’re really strong in math, biology and physics. You’re attracted to a major that’s both interdisciplinary and multi-departmental. If so, you’ve come to the right place. Our engineering science program prepares students for advanced study in engineering, science and mathematics. It’s a perfect choice for those who want to pursue careers in green tech, energy systems, solar engineering and a lot more. Why choose Berkeley? With world-renowned strengths across scientific disciplines, Berkeley is an ideal place to pursue study in interdisciplinary engineering sciences. Students and faculty explore the intersection of what is possible in energy engineering, engineering math and statistics, engineering physics and environmental engineering science. Most recently, our engineering science and engineering physics programs were ranked third in the nation by U.S. News & World Report. Want to know more? Find details about Engineering Science and its programs. We offer four majors in this interdisciplinary field: Energy engineering Engineering mathematics and statistics Engineering physics Environmental engineering science The Engineering Physics major interweaves classical and modern physics, chemistry, and mathematics with engineering applications. Chief among the attractions of the major is its flexibility; students have the ability to take diverse engineering, math, and science classes based on individual research goals. The solid base in physics and mathematics is augmented with a selection of engineering course options that prepares students to tackle complex problems faced by society.

The Possibilities: EP students will be prepared for grad studies in a wide-range of subjects in physics, math, chemistry, chemical engineering, or engineering programs. Job Opportunities: National laboratories or in high-tech industries such as lasers, novel materials, biotechnology, computer design, micro-electronics and micro devices, software development, communication technology, and diverse areas that focus on applied science and technology.
