1, Physics Department of Massachusetts Institute of Technology
Massachusetts Institute of Technology was established in 186 1, Department of Physics was established in 1865, and the first physical chemistry laboratory in the United States was established in 1900. The history of physics department has developed rapidly with the development of MIT, and its proud achievements have also created today's Massachusetts.
The physics course of MIT mainly includes four dimensions: astrophysics, atoms, condensed matter and plasma physics, experimental nuclear physics and particle physics, theoretical nuclear physics and particle physics. Its facilities and personnel advantages are very pleasant.
The physics department of MIT has developed into one of the highest ranked physics departments in the United States, with 75 teachers and 245 graduate students, involving 280 undergraduate majors. Massachusetts Center for Theoretical Physics (CPT) is a unified research and teaching center for basic physics, including 14 MIT teachers, about a dozen postdoctoral researchers and long-term visitors.
2. Stanford University
Stanford 1885 was founded, 189 1 officially enrolled students. 106, physics professor felix bloch became the first Nobel Prize winner in Stanford University. The physics department of Stanford University mainly has several research fields: astrophysics, cosmology, particle physics, atomic and laser physics, condensed matter physics.
It should be noted that the graduate students of Physics Department of Stanford University only recruit doctoral and MS students, and require applicants to submit GRE scores, but there is no minimum GRE score requirement. Every year, more than 600 applicants apply to the Physics Department of Stanford University, but only about 60 people are accepted.
3. Harvard University
The Physics Department of Harvard University is a relatively large department in Harvard, with 18 professional directions and 96 courses. The research fields provided include: astrophysics and astronomy, experimental atomic, molecular and optical physics, experimental biophysics, experimental condensed matter physics, etc.
Postgraduates only recruit doctoral students, requiring applicants to submit GRE and GRE physics scores, and there is no minimum GRE score requirement. The Department of Physics has more than 50 faculty members, including more than 0/00 postdoctoral students and about 200 graduate students.
