Promotion in Physik

Our faculty conduct research in astronomy and astrophysics, molecular spectroscopy, biomedical diagnostics and imaging, and experimental and computational biophysics. Our experimental biophysicists lead national and international projects on cancer research, biomedical imaging, and nanomedicine involving groups from the US, Canada, Europe, Japan, and South America.

With a degree in physics, you may choose to pursue graduate study, a career in academia or national laboratory, or work in the leading industries in biotechnology, scientific instrumentation, aerospace, and defense.

Our promise statement “Where open doors open minds” reflects our approach to education and scholarship. Namely, we are a college with world-class faculty who function as true teacher-scholars. College of Science & Engineering (CSE) faculty open our students' minds and engage in active scholarship, whether the subject is as large as the universe, as small as a sub-atomic particle, or as abstract as a mathematical theorem. Our goal is to propagate both knowledge and excitement to our students, whether in the classroom, our offices, research laboratories, or the field.

Your Texas Christian University (TCU) degree from the College of Science & Engineering will take you great places, and we’ll always be cheering you on. We are also much more than a conduit to a great job, graduate, or medical school – although these are well-traveled paths. This is because we are committed to the principles of diversity and equality, and we strive to make the College as inclusive as possible. Stated, we believe STEM education is hollow without these values inculcated firmly throughout.
