The Deep Underground Neutrino Experiment (DUNE) is a next-generation long-baseline neutrino experiment designed to determine the remaining unknown parameters of the standard three-flavor neutrino oscillation framework, including the octant of θ23, the neutrino mass hierarchy, and the CP-violating phase. In addition to its primary oscillation program, DUNE will provide a powerful platform to probe several physics beyond the Standard Model. In this talk, I will explore the sensitivity of DUNE to some new physics scenarios, including Lorentz invariance violation, non-standard neutrino interactions, and the presence of eV-scale sterile neutrinos. I will discuss how information from both accelerator and atmospheric neutrino channels can provide complementary probes of these scenarios and examine their impact on the determination of standard oscillation parameters.
