Physics

Meet the Faculty

If you are interested in hot topics such as heat transport in solar cells, lasers, or devices for high-speed telecom, you'll be working with Janice Hudgings.

Mark Peterson covers a lot of ground: from fluid dynamics and modelling of low Reynolds number flows to the physical impossibilities of Dante's Hell.

Highlights

  • Physics Prof Wins Presidential Award
  • MHC's First Patent-Related Venture Heats Up
  • MHC’s Greenberg '09 Wins Major Physics Award
  • Maybe you are wondering... "Who's Hiring Physics Majors?"
