Boston College

Ph.D. in Physics

Welcome to the Boston College Department of Physics

Welcome to the Boston College Department of Physics. Our department’s primary focus is cutting-edge research concentrated in experimental and theoretical condensed matter physics. Over a relatively short period of time, we have become one of the leading condensed matter departments in the country. Some specific areas of current interest are superconductivity, photovoltaics, metamaterials, thermoelectrics, nanostructures and nanomaterials for biosensing, plasmonics, plasmas, topological insulators, novel electronic materials, and other strongly correlated electron systems.

研究生参与这项研究，获得未来在自己选择的职业道路上取得成功所需的技术和智力培训。该系有 17 名教员、多名博士后和约 50 名研究生，所有研究生都获得了助教或研究助理的资助。

我们的研究生可以使用重要的研究设施。物理系不断增强和补充这些设施，并与许多外部设施建立了牢固的联系，包括洛斯阿拉莫斯国家实验室、阿贡国家实验室、复杂自适应物质研究所 (ICAM)、布鲁克海文国家实验室、海军研究实验室和国家高磁场实验室。

In addition to coursework and research participation, graduate students become members of the worldwide research community. Each week there are colloquia and seminars presented by leading physicists from around the country and world. The department is a close-knit community of scientists as well as part of the thriving Boston intellectual and scientific community, allowing for collaboration among local universities.

经过多年的学习和研究，我们把年轻的物理学家送往世界各地，在学术、工业和政府等多个领域获得成功。如果这个社区对你有吸引力，我们邀请你访问 bc.edu/physics 来详细了解我们充满活力的科学环境。
