Welcome to the Department of Physics and Earth Science home page! The department is located in the Science and technology (SET) building on the campus of the 香港六合彩挂牌资料. The department offers an undergraduate degree in physics and sustainability, and courses are offered that lead to a minor in geology. The department offers a General Science option which is generally designed for students who have a second major in secondary education. The department maintains the university planetarium and observatory, which is available to the public for viewing (please follow the link for more information regarding dates and time of availability). A course in astronomy is also taught in the planetarium. 

The faculty members in the Department of Physics and Earth Science have the knowledge and experience to offer an outstanding education in these sciences. Active areas of research by the department faculty members include experimental laser optics, theoretical atom-light interactions, observational astronomy, water quality and resources, plate tectonics and seismology, relationship between the geological past and a sustainable future.Our faculty members have worked or conducted research in many areas of the world, including Chile, Russia, England, Madagascar, and the Caribbean.

The mission of the Department of Physics and Earth Science at the 香港六合彩挂牌资料 is to support excellence in students’ collegiate experiences through an integrated faculty focus on teaching, research, and service within the university and the community at-large as students are encouraged to explore, discover, critique, communicate, and succeed in their chosen fields—physics, geophysics, sustainability, and geology—as they prepare to contribute, personally and professionally, to diverse, regional and global societies.
