The mathematical physics research team focuses on challenges within statistical mechanics, atomic and molecular physics, quantum field theory, and the mathematical underpinnings of theoretical physics. Their work encompasses areas like quantum mechanics (covering both nonrelativistic and relativistic approaches), atomic and molecular systems, disorder phenomena in condensed matter, phase behaviors in model ferromagnets, matter stability, symmetry principles and their breakdown in quantum field theory (examined both theoretically and through specific models), along with advancements in functional analysis, algebra, and contemporary probability theory that emerge from these studies. Beyond the physics department, students in this field collaborate with mathematics faculty members.

IELTS 6.0
Qualification Requirements
All official Transcripts. A bachelor's degree or its foreign equivalent from an accredited college or university. Official transcripts of your grades.
Three letters of recommendation. Applicants are required to upload a transcript (may be unofficial at this time) including the key from all attended colleges or universities.
The transcript must show the name of the student, name of the issuing institution, name of courses taken, and the grades received in those courses.
The Graduate School does not have a minimum TOEFL or IELTS score requirement. If you are offered admission and accept our offer and have scored below a 27 on the Speaking sub-section of the TOEFL iBT or below an 8.0 on the Speaking sub-section of the IELTS you will be required to take an English placement test at the start of the fall term. Students who do not pass the test will be required to enroll in English Language Program classes.
GRE :
General Test optional/not required, Physics Subject Test optional/not required
Additional departmental requirements
Applicants must indicate at least one choice from a menu of Department's current Areas of Research see the Department of Physics website Research section for descriptions of the research areas and the current activities in each. The Statement of Purpose is a good opportunity to clarify research interests. The Department of Physics notes that it is not necessary to describe how an applicant developed an interest in Physics. Applicants are typically best served by devoting the statement to a description of their research background and interests. However, applicants with unusual or compelling paths are welcome to describe their experiences. In any case, the Statement of Purpose should focus on an applicant's specific research interests at Princeton and any relevant research experience.
