    253.535.7536 www.plu.edu/physics/ physics@plu.edu Bret Underwood, Ph.D., Chair Physics is the scientific study of the material universe at its most fundamental level: the mathematical description of space and time and the behavior of matter from the elementary particles to the universe as a whole. A physicist might study the inner workings of atoms and nuclei, the size and age of the universe, the behavior of high-temperature superconductors or the life cycles of stars. Physicists use high

  • The polymer summer research experience (REU) program in the School of Polymer Science and Polymer Engineering at The University of Akron is open to apply.

  • A degree in physics can lead to employment in design and development work in private industry or in large, government laboratories.

    Careers for Physics MajorsA degree in physics can lead to employment in design and development work in private industry or in large, government laboratories. With their broad education in fundamental physical concepts, physicists often work closely with engineers who have more specific design-oriented training. Those who complete a Ph.D. degree in physics may be involved in the basic research of unanswered questions in science, or may contribute to the development of new, advanced technologies
