What will I learn?

The Doctor of Philosophy program in physics is intended for highly capable students who have the interest and ability to follow a career in independent research. The recent advent of the graduate faculty initiative at ASU extends the spectrum of potential physics doctoral topics and advisors to include highly transdisciplinary projects that draw upon: biochemistry, biology, chemistry, electrical engineering, materials science and other related fields. Consequently, students and doctoral advisors can craft novel doctoral projects that transcend the classical palette of physics subjects. Transdisciplinary expertise of this nature is increasingly vital to modern science and technology.
