Physics department provides several opportunities for students to participate in both experimental and theoretical research. The students' efforts are supported with mentoring by faculty, awards, scholarships in summer as well as incidental expenses paid for publishing and presenting their work in symposia, conferences and technical meetings. A sample of research papers presented by the undergraduate students follows here. More recent work by students will be updated soon.
