in Physics, an average of 3.6 per year. The great majority of them continued their
studies in physics or related fields; it was the exception that a student entered
a job market without further professional preparation. Graduates were highly successful
securing assistantships or scholarships in good graduate departments. National awards
include four from the NSF, two from the AEC, a Fulbright, and a Woodrow Wilson.
At least 47 physics graduates have received a Ph.D. in physics.
21% of UD physics graduates are now employed after receiving an M.S. in physics or
related field.
