Undergraduate physics majors today take classes and participate in research experiences that expose them increasingly to more advanced mathematical topics that they will encounter in many research fields if they continue on to graduate school. For example, at the end of the twentieth century a significant introduction to general relativity was uncommon at the undergraduate level. Now the rudimentary mathematics underlying general relativity (differential geometry and associated tensor calculus) and the basics of physical applications in gravitational physics are taught routinely at the advanced undergraduate level in many universities.
