committed to develop lifelong
learners, who are logical, analytical,
creative and critical thinkers
appreciative of God’s creation
envisions itself as an advocate of envisions itself as an advocate of
effective educational practices in
Physics
The quest for nature’s fundamental
laws is accompanied by a concerted
search for relevant applications
benefiting Philippine society
is an 11-trimester program that brings together a full
BS Physics program enhanced with additional
courses in Applied Mathematics and
Economics/FinanceEconomics/Finance
Provides multi-disciplinary training that combines the
best of physics, mathematics, and economics/finance
that would serve you well for careers in economic or
financial analysis.
Two types:
1. Those attempting to predict the stock market
2."quants" - Those who use quantitative methods to
assess and manage investment risks.

is an 11-trimester program
provides classic training of physicists which is known provides classic training of physicists which is known
to produce people who are highly skilled in
Mathematical Analysis and the technical know-how
for a career in the industry
Typically work in product engineering, quality
control, process engineering, and failure analysis
Bring advances in the following industries:
auto
aerospace
construction
manufacturingmanufacturing
electronics
computer
communications industries
Develop new or improved metals, plastics, ceramics,
semiconductors and composites
Work to increase the strength of steel,
toughen ceramics, lower the cost of
composites and make faster computer
circuits
Develop new materials for electronics,
biotechnology, and plastics products
Create and study materials at an atomic
level, using advanced processes to replicate
the characteristics of materials and their
components with computers

An 11-trimester program plus one
trimester Practicum that prepares
students for possible careers as students for possible careers as
Medical Physicists
The program already includes a
substantial number of Chemistry and
Biology courses, it will take only a
few more subjects to enable you to
take the NMAT and proceed to
medical school, if you choose to
A 9-trimester premed programA 9-trimester premed program
Offers a different perspective to preparation for
medical school by concentrating on the application
of physics in medicine
Technologically adept and oriented physicians.
Assure safe and effective delivery of radiation
Protection of patient & others from
excessive radiation
Establish protocols to ensure accurate patient
dosimetrydosimetry
Measurement and characterization of radiation
Determination of delivered dose
Advancement of procedures to ensure image quality
Help develop improved imaging techniques (e.g.
mammography, CTscan, MRI, ultrasound)
Contribute to the development of therapeutic
techniques (e.g. protate implants, stereotactic techniques (e.g. protate implants, stereotactic
radiosurgery)
Collaborate with oncologists to design
treatment plans
Ensure cancer patients receive
prescribed dose of radiation to the
correct location
