Overview
Why to study
- Faculty members and graduate students pursue their research locally, and at locations elsewhere in Canada, the United States, Europe and Japan. Graduate instruction is provided in an encouraging and productive environment. The department of Physics at the University of Regina is an associate member of the TRIUMF subatomic physics laboratory in Vancouver, and has a close relationship with the Jefferson Laboratory in Newport News, Virginia, USA. Our department is also an institutional member of the international ATLAS collaboration at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN, and is an institutional member of both the institute of Particle Physics and the Canadian Institute for Nuclear Physics.
- There is also an adjunct faculty member who conducts research in Observational Astronomy. Students working with him may receive the MSc degree in Physics.
