Overview

Program Description The Academic Accelerator Program (AAP) is a balanced first-year program for international students with good English-language skills. It supplements immersive classes taught in English with just the right amount of support. Students in the Academic Accelerator receive: The right amount of support for their academic and English-speaking needs A full year’s worth of college credits Access to courses exclusively for international students English-language help with words they need to know for their classes A mix of classes with international and U.S. students Physics is the field of study concerned with the nature and properties of matter and energy: how measurable quantities, like energy and speed, are defined and how these concepts are related (for example, Newton’s Law of gravity or the theory of special relativity). If students want to learn more about how the universe is structured and functions, they can consider studying physics at the University of Utah. In addition to learning scientific and theoretical concepts and facts, physicists also develop excellent analytical thinking skills and problem-solving techniques, and expertise in computational methods. Students have the option to specialize in one of the following areas: Astronomy & Astrophysics BA/BS (meant for students who want to study the universe) Biomedical Physics BA/BS (for students who want to enter biomedical fields) Applied Physics BA/BS (best for students who desire careers in industry) Students may also pursue a Physics Teaching BA/BS track, preparing them to become teachers in the state of Utah. Because the skills gained from this program are so broadly-applicable, students who decide not to pursue graduate-level degrees can use their abilities in a wide variety of careers.

OPT and STEM OPT eligibility depend on maintaining F-1 status and on the program. A program counts as STEM only when its CIP code is on the official STEM list — not because its name sounds technical.
