Physics at ECU: Develop Your Potential
Student Experience
Physics students at ECU can participate in a wide variety of activities to prepare them for their careers. Our students engage in novel research projects with world-class physicists that enable them to present their work at ECU’s Research and Creative Activities Week (RCAW) or even at international conferences. Additionally, organizations such as the Society of Physics Students enhance the student experience through peer interaction and public outreach events.
Our Department
The Department of Physics at East Carolina University aims to serve the people of the State of North Carolina by educating its students through first-rate programs at the undergraduate, master’s, and doctoral level. Its faculty continuously engage in interdisciplinary research programs in the areas of pure and applied physics with the goal of advancing the frontiers of knowledge in their chosen fields of specialization.
