Since its founding by George Ellery Hale in 1892, the Department of Astronomy and Astrophysics has been one of the preeminent astronomy departments in the country.
The department offers a program of coursework and research leading to the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in physics. Approximately 40 graduate students are enrolled in the Physics department, supported by research and teaching assistantships and fellowships.
Our department is large enough for countless research opportunities and small enough for personal mentoring that will help you find the career path that is right for you.
The Department of Physics offers Ph.D. degrees through an increasingly strong, broad, and diverse, graduate program that successfully prepares our students for careers in academia, industry, and teaching.
The Department of Physics and Astronomy at Washington State University is built around a small but highly productive faculty whose research expertise provides students a wide variety of research experiences.
Nestled in the New River Valley, Virginia Tech and its surrounding communities offer a wealth of opportunity in both academic and extracurricular activities.
