Overview

The department offers courses at all levels taught by faculty who are leading researchers in their fields as well as enthusiastic and often innovative teachers. Many faculty also regularly supervise undergraduates in directed research, both in the summer and during the academic year.

Key Facts

Because the Physics program at Tufts University can take you in many different directions, and students come to the subject with a wide range of backgrounds, interests and goals, the requirements have been designed for maximum flexibility.

Outside the classroom and the lab, the department offers a stimulating and cooperative community. We have regular speaker series that are open to all students, and the undergraduate Society of Physics Students meets weekly for pizza and conversation, to share experiences, advice, and ideas, and just to have fun. All students with an interest in physics and astronomy are welcome.
