Faculty of Physics at University of Bucharest

This Faculty was divided into the Faculty of Mathematics and Mechanics and the Faculty of Physics in 1962. In 1974, The Faculty of Physics moved to the new campus in Magurele, together with the Central Institute for Physics, which brought together at the time the National Institutes for Research and Development of today’s Magurele Platform. Thus, the student training opportunities are enhanced by direct involvement in research programmes and the research possibilities offered by the two largest Physics libraries in the country, the National Physics Library of the Horia Hulubei Physics and Engineering Institute and the library of the Faculty of Physics . All of the training-specialization and scientific research activities take place within the four departments of the faculty, which benefit from an extremely talented teaching staff - both from an academic standpoint, as well as from a scientific one – that is involved, together with many of the students, in prestigious national and international research programmes. Besides the teaching activity, the research and academic staff carry out important research programmes in the nine research centres that operate within the faculty, all of them benefiting of an adequate infrastructure for research in their specific areas.
