Check out the research our faculty do.  Each spring there is an application process to do summer research with some of these faculty.  Also, we send out lots of announcements about other opportunities.  All of this comes out of on department mailing list (email Courtney Kujawa to get on the list).

Also, check out this page about how to find summer research and internship opportunities.

The passing mark "S" is equivalent to a C- or better and will satisfy any requirement associated to a course including General Education and Physics Major requirements. There are no restrictions placed on the number of courses a student may choose to take pass/fail unless they are considering some of these options:

• Students seeking the Dean's List, Department Distinctions, or Honors are encouraged to review the Policy page before deciding to take a course pass/fail.
• Students who are planning competitive graduate programs (particularly pre-med) are strongly encouraged to take courses for letter grades. 
• Students who take a course on a pass/fail are able to request a letter on letterhead written by the professor of the course to explain what letter grade they would have received had they taken the course for a grade. A copy of this letter can be retained in the student's file in the Registrar's Office and sent as a supplemental document with their transcript upon request (please select that you have an attachment in the transcript ordering process to allow for a letter to be sent with an official transcript).
