Ohio University: Physics Program & Condensed Matter Research

[uskalu]

Hi all,
last week I accept offer from ohio university. I got selected to physics program. I am interested in condensed matter, solid state and nano-science.
i went though the university website but i couldn't find much idea about it and fundings. also in gradschoolshopper.com web it shows in ohio funding for condensed matter is much less. but its really good for nuclear physics.
please let me know your ideas.
thank you

This forum is great for physics/math, but I suggest you try the collegeconfidential forums for some answers as well. The people there are more knowledgeable on the topic of colleges and I'm sure there are a decent amount of physics majors there as well. Try the "College Search and Selection" subforum instead of the "Other Majors" one just cause the latter tends to receive less visitors.

Congratulations on being accepted into Ohio University's physics program! It is always exciting to begin a new journey in your academic career. I understand your interest in condensed matter, solid state, and nano-science. These fields offer a vast array of research opportunities and have significant impacts on our understanding of the world around us.

I would recommend reaching out to the physics department at Ohio University for more information on their specific research and funding opportunities in condensed matter. They will be able to provide you with more detailed information and potentially connect you with current students or faculty members who specialize in these areas.

In terms of funding, it is important to keep in mind that funding availability can vary from year to year and can also depend on individual research projects. While it may appear that funding for condensed matter research at Ohio University is less compared to nuclear physics, it is always worth exploring all available options and opportunities. You may also want to consider reaching out to other departments or research centers at the university that may offer funding for your specific interests.

Overall, I encourage you to keep an open mind and explore all the possibilities at Ohio University. With your interest in condensed matter and their strong program in nuclear physics, there may be opportunities for interdisciplinary research and collaboration. I wish you all the best in your future endeavors at Ohio University.
