The Chinese University of Hong Kong

B.Sc. in Physics (Enrichment Stream in Theoretical Physics)

About Program

The Enrichment Stream in Theoretical Physics is designed for students who have a good foundation in secondary school physics and mathematics. The core part of the curriculum, while overlapping much with that of the physics major programme, has additional emphasis on early small-group discussion classes with an academic advisor and on research component. The pool of electives is defined by a stronger flavour towards courses in theoretical physics and mathematics. Students would have better opportunities to engage in research at an earlier stage and build up their research capabilities gradually. The Stream is meant to help students explore their research potential and bridge the gap from undergraduate physics to postgraduate studies at the master’s or doctoral level. Depending on the students’ interests and career plans, students have the option to declare an additional stream by completing stream-specific electives from: (i) Astrophysics and Particle Physics, (ii) Computational and Data Physics, or (iii) Quantum Science and Technology.
Building upon a tradition of excellence in teaching and research, the physics curriculum continues to enable students to have a good grasp of fundamentals of physics and a basket of analytic, experimental, numerical, research, communication and other generic skills, and to appreciate and understand the important applications of physics in modern society.
Highlights

Profil

Welcome to The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK), and thank you for your interest in the University.

CUHK was founded in 1963 in response to society’s demand for higher education that would combine and bring out the best of Chinese and western cultures. The ideal, which at that time rallied to action many scholars and thinkers, still rings true in today’s Hong Kong, whose continued success hinges on openness and diversity.

CUHK has proven to be a magnet for talents, attracting local and international students and scholars to study, teach, and do research here, and their achievements have continuously won the University international acclaims and respect. This is a tribute to our staff, students, alumni, and supporters, who diligently work together to promote the creation and application of knowledge.

Over the past decades, CUHK has always upheld an enterprising and forward-looking spirit that makes studying and working here a unique experience. CUHK is a comprehensive university where students and staff are continuously challenged at the forefront of knowledge, and where traditional and contemporary cultures are equally valued. It is also the only university in Hong Kong which adopts a collegiate system. The university community cherishes dearly its tradition in general education and civic service, which constitute a key component of our students’ learning experience.
