Welcome to the Department of Physics and Astronomy at The University of Toledo. We
are a growing, world-class department with strong programs in research and academics,
nationally and internationally recognized faculty members, ties to physics-related
industries, and a record of student success. We strive to provide students with access
to the cutting-edge research efforts of a larger institution, while still maintaining
the level of personal interaction with faculty found at smaller places.
Our webpages have more information about our undergraduate program, graduate program, research, people/contact info, public outreach, and colloquium schedule . You can also explore these topics using the menu on the right.
