A signature aspect of the physics and astronomy department at Ithaca College is undergraduate research, in which faculty and students collaborate on innovative projects that push forward the bounds of knowledge.
We offer a range of research opportunities during the academic year and during the summer. Explore the exciting research ongoing in the department using the links on this page, then contact individual professors to learn more and get involved!
Opportunities are available in each of these labs for Summer 2022!
The Summer Scholars Program gives students the opportunity to work alongside dedicated faculty mentors to collaborate on mutually-enriching projects over the course of 8-10 paid weeks in the summer.
Current physics and applied physics majors can request department funding to help them attend or present research at regional or national conferences.
