Research projects will reflect the current research interests among the faculty. Opportunities are available in condensed matter and materials physics, atomic and nuclear physics, optics, astrophysics and physics education. Students accepted into the program select several projects of interest. The program directors then match each student to the most appropriate research project. Students are encouraged to make any special requests to the program directors - often, a new project can evolve.
Check out the faculty website for the current research.
