Physics at Haverford

Haverford’s Physics major and minor bring together students and faculty interested in investigating the physical principles that animate the natural world. Our rigorous programs provide significant opportunities for first-hand experimental and theoretical investigations and a solid foundation in the basic principles of the discipline.

Professor of Physics Suzanne Amador Kane used a headcam on a goshawk to learn how it searches for its prey.

The passion Megan Holt ’14 has for field hockey has sent her on an incredible journey. It started in her hometown of Bryn Mawr, continued at Haverford—where she was a field hockey team captain—and has taken her all the way across the world to Copenhagen, where she now lives and plays for a club team.
