      Physics Program Review

      This week, the Physics Department completed its first external program review since 2017. The review team interviewed students, faculty, staff, and administrators and will be compiling recommendations for continual improvement over the coming weeks. Thanks to everyone that helped demonstrate the strength of our department!
