Detailed Program Description

NCSU Physics has recently completed its faculty hiring goals of achieving near 100% research active faculty. This has resulted in significantly improved research support and improved quality and visibility of our research program with strengths in Astrophysics, Nuclear/High Energy Physics, Condensed Mater Physics/Nanoscience, Physics Education and new areas in Biophysics and Complex Matter. In turn, this research excellence allowed us to attract excellent students with a much improved rate of progress towards completion of a Ph.D. These improvements are very tangible when considering that the average subject GRE scores of enrolling US students improved over the last three years by ~200 points and the average GPA over the last two years is 3.75. Excellent individuals will be able to spread their wings at NCSU as far as they dare and are strongly encouraged to apply to become part of a dynamic and positive environment.
