Physics undergraduate students at FAMU are strongly encouraged to work on research projects with faculty members. Research assistantships are often available throughout the term and during the summer months. Often, by working with various professors throughout their undergraduate degree, students can get a good feeling for what areas of research would interest them for a career.
Experience is also available with National Laboratories with ties to FAMU, such as Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in Livermore, California. - Undergraduate and graduate student support, including tuition support, is available for qualified students. We invite students to consider studying Physics at Florida A&M University.
