State-of-the-art equipment, and internationally recognized faculty, and research projects make our department a dynamic and exciting place.

We believe a Physics degree represents strong training for a broad range of careers. Most graduates continue to graduate school in Physics or other scientific or business fields, while others seek jobs in high-tech industries. We aim to help our majors develop strong mathematical and analytical skills and good laboratory competencies, so they can become effective communicators of science and gain a solid understanding of the fundamental laws that govern the universe.

Studies concentrate on various aspects of solid-state and materials research, from superconductors to soft-condensed matter systems. We try to engage all our majors in modern scientific research — some have even published papers before graduation. Students in the Physics Department are passionate about their major, and faculty and staff create an atmosphere where problem-solving and curiosity are valued.
