Mission Statement
The mission of the Department of Physics, Astronomy and Engineering Science is to work with others to understand, explore, and apply quantitative models of the physical world.
We provide excellent opportunities for learning in and out of the classroom. Our upper level physics and astronomy courses utilize modern optical laboratories and the student-run SCSU Observatory. These courses and equipment greatly enhance the value of the physics programs at SCSU.
Our faculty have high quality research programs in theoretical nuclear physics, theoretical quantum mechanics, laser spectroscopy, planetary science, extragalactic astronomy and stellar astronomy. Our undergraduate students fully participate in these research programs and gain experience in cutting edge technology. We invite you to explore our department.
