The Department of Physics and Astronomy at APSU is a growing department consisting of eight faculty, two staff members, and approximately 75 undergraduate physics majors. We have active research areas in astronomy, materials physics with an emphasis on photovoltaics, and computational physics. The department is currently equipping a $500k laboratory for the optical characterization of photovoltaics and advanced materials. Clarksville is centrally located in Tennessee, approximately 3.5 hour’s drive from both Oak Ridge National Lab and Huntsville, Alabama. For more information about the department, its research and degree programs, and its physical and computational facilities please visit http://www.apsu.edu/physics.
Applicants must have a Ph.D. in physics, astronomy, or a related field. Candidates whose research interests can involve undergraduate students, have the potential for collaboration within the department, and make use of existing facilities are preferred.
