Course Overview

 Some of us collaborate with engineers, others with mathematicians.  In between, we always keep in mind the applications both of physics and of the results of our research.  Applied Physics seeks both fundamental knowledge and new ideas that benefit society.  Our research strengths include (but are not limited to) materials science, solid-state and condensed-matter physics, computational physics, biophysics, spectroscopy, and optics.  Our graduates find employment in academia, national laboratories, hospitals, finance, and industry.
