Graduate Programs in Physics and
Engineering Physics
Overview
Physics is the most fundamental science. It involves understanding the
basic principles by which all things in the universe exist and operate.
Therefore Physics is the foundation of other scientific disciplines. It
is also the natural basis of all the technology disciplines such as
electronics, engineering and computer science.
The Physics Department at The University of Tulsa focuses on small
research groups, close collaborations, and extensive
mentoring are the norm. Interdisciplinary activities are encouraged
both in the department and at TU in general and with the National
Laboratories (NREL, ORNL), Federal Agencies (NASA), Research
Institutions (General Atomics) and Industry.
Degrees offered include Master's Degree in Physics and Master's Degree
in
Engineering Physics.
The department, chaired by Dr. George Miller, contains 8 faculty
members and several postdoctoral associates with active research
programs in a wide range of topics:
On the
experimental side, faculty and students are engaged in research in the
areas of:
- Condensed Matter Physics
- Material Science
- Nanotechnology
- Laser Spectroscopy
- Plasma Physics
- Optical Physics
On the theoretical side, faculty and students study:
- Condensed Matter Physics
- Plasma Physics
- Astrophysics
These webpages are meant to provide an introductory guide to applicants
