OSU Physics: Information for prospective graduate students
World-class research and learningGraduate students in physics at OSU have the opportunity to study and conduct research in close collaboration with faculty in the informal environment of a relatively small department. A young energetic faculty trained in some of the world’s top physics programs lead investigations in a range of research areas. |
 |
Individual attentionThe Department is proud of its ability to provide individual attention to graduate students and to tailor students' degree programs to their needs and interests. For example |
|
State of the art facilitiesResearch is central to the graduate program and students benefit from department facilities such as state-of-the-art laser systems, computational clusters, pulsed laser deposition, single molecule fluorescence microscopy, scanning probe microscopy and microfabrication equipment. | 
|
The Oregon lifestyleAlmost all entering students are offered full financial support as Graduate Assistants. Oregon State University is located in Corvallis, a medium-sized city located in the Willamette Valley of western Oregon. The climate is mild, with warm, dry summers. To the west, the Pacific coast of Oregon can be reached in about an hour while the Cascade mountains, less than two hours away to the east, are available for hiking, skiing, and other mountain activities. |
