To teach physics in middle school or high school, students will need a bachelor’s degree in physics and teacher certification. The physics program at WSU offers a teaching track that integrates core professional education coursework with the physics major and leads to Washington state teacher certification.

The core courses in the physics major's teaching track prepare students for the topics they're likely to be teaching in their own classroom.

Supplemental Pre-Professional tracks are available for students interested in pursuing further professional education. If there is interest in one of these tracks in addition to the degree, please let the recruiter know. The options are: • Pre-Dentistry • Pre-Law • Pre-Medicine • Pre-Nutrition & Exercise Physiology • Pre-Occupational Therapy • Pre-Optometry • Pre-Pharmacy • Pre-Physical Therapy • Pre-Physician Assistant • Pre-Speech & Hearing Sciences

• Pre-Veterinary Medicine
