About us
Welcome to PKNU Physics!
Welcome to department of
Physics at Pukyong National University.
The Department of Physics at Pukyong National University was established in 1980.
Although the department was originally founded about 30 years, it has shown remarkable growth.
We have over 1,000 alumni who are contributing to the local society and the scientific development of Korea.
From 2006 to 2012, our department earned the research fund of the 2nd Brain Korea 21(BK21) program run by Ministry of Education. As a follow-up program BK21, we have received BK21 Plus in the following year of 2013.
Most graduate students are recipients of BK21 Plus program, so that they are strongly encouraged to study their major in physics research.
The 27 faculty members who have emphasis on teaching lead 200 undergraduates and 50 graduate students to e the frontiers of Physics. We extend a special welcome to those who are prospective undergraduate and graduate students thinking of applying to our department. For undergraduates, our department provides excellent education program combined with advanced physical research and gives many fellowships and employment programs.
Our graduate program outstanding research experience and knowledge in the field of condensed matter physics, applied acoustics, statistical physics, nuclear-particle physics, dielectrics, magnetism, and nano-physics.
