Perform forefront research in fundamental physics with a doctorate in physics.
Areas of research include, but are not restricted to, theoretical and experimental investigations in:
- Atomic and molecular physics
- Computational physics
- High-energy physics
- Low-temperature/condensed matter physics
- Materials science
- Nuclear physics
- Quantum optics
The research is supported by state-of-the-art experimental equipment. You'll have access to high-performance computing, a variable-energy cyclotron, and many shared campus facilities.
The Department of Physics and Astronomy recommends that all graduate students serve as teaching assistants for at least two semesters.
