The Physics Department is one of the largest science departments at the University of Washington. We have one of the largest undergraduate physics degree programs in the United States, with 435 majors. The department encourages the involvement of undergraduates in research; currently, more than 180 undergraduates participate in research within the department. We have over 150 graduate students with 34 coming this fall, studying advanced degrees and 15 to 20 Ph.D.'s being awarded each year. Together with 26 post-docs and research faculty, these students form the heart of our research program. The program is supported by about 19 million dollars in grants from the National Science Foundation, the Department of Energy, and other agencies. Our 49 tenure-line faculty lead the graduate and undergraduate research programs. Among them, we have 9 National Academy of the Sciences members, and our emeritus faculty now includes 2 Nobel Laureates and a Presidential Early Career Award recipient.
