The Physics Department demonstrates outstanding expertise across multiple disciplines. We welcome applications from talented students passionate about experimental and theoretical condensed matter physics, structural biophysics with a focus on protein dynamics and function, as well as cosmology, relativistic astrophysics, and gravitational-wave/multimessenger astronomy. Our graduate program primarily focuses on developing innovative research scientists.
Our gravitational physics research spans multiple domains: In gravitational-wave astronomy, we hold a prominent position in LIGO, detecting signals from merging binary neutron stars and black holes while searching for electromagnetic counterparts, and utilizing pulsars to detect gravitational waves emitted by supermassive black holes. Our relativistic astrophysics work involves determining parameters of rotating neutron stars and creating computational models for stellar mergers. Astronomical research includes investigations into early galaxy formation and evolution, along with the characteristics of neutron stars and white dwarfs.

Qualification Requirements
Letters of Recommendation. Three letters of recommendation are required from persons familiar with the applicant's academic work.
Statement of Purpose. An essential part of your application, the Statement of Purpose is used to determine the appropriateness of your educational and professional goals and serves as an example of your ability to express yourself in writing.
Undergraduate major in physics or related fields. Applicants may be admitted with specific program-defined course deficiencies provided that the deficiencies amount to no more than two courses.
The GRE is not required for admission. The student is expected to satisfy deficiency requirements within three enrolled semesters. The deficiencies are monitored by the Graduate School and the individual graduate program unit. No course credits earned in making up deficiencies may be counted as program credits required for the degree.
You must have attended this institution for at least one year and the degree was earned at an institution in the United States, and you have lived and worked continuously in the U.S since earning the degree. Cambridge English: Advanced / Cambridge English Proficiency C1 level or higher. TOEFL IBT (not Home Edition) - 79 120, IELTS - 6.5 9.0.
