Physics is the study of matter and energy and their interactions in the fields of mechanics, acoustics, heat, electricity, magnetism, optics, quantum mechanics, elementary particles, condensed matter, and cosmology.  A physics major is a good choice for students planning a career in scientific research, engineering, and teaching.  Augustana's program prepares students who have these goals, within the context of a liberal arts foundation.  Why study physics?

One-year faculty position.  We invite applications for a one-year full-time position to begin with the 2008-2009 academic year.  Duties will include teaching solid state physics and computer applications in physics, as well as introductory physics.  A tenure-track hire is expected for the 2009-2010 academic year.
