The interdisciplinary program provides an in-depth look at how science is communicated to the public, how policy shapes research, and how science communication affects society.

Physicists unravel the secrets of the centuries-old practice of knitting in a new study that explores the physics of ‘jamming’ — a phenomenon when soft or stretchy materials become rigid under low stress but soften under higher tension.

J. Cole Faggert, a Ph.D. student in the School of Physics, will use multi-wavelength imaging to study supermassive black holes and the physics of their plasma flows.
