Chemical physics and spectroscopy at Ohio State have long held a solid, international reputation for excellence. For over 60 years Ohio State has been the site of the annual OSU International Symposium on Molecular Spectroscopy. We encourage our graduate students to take an active role in this meeting, which typically brings 500 scientists to campus.
Each year we have a large number of postdoctoral fellows and visiting scientists who bring expertise from around the world to our program. Two seminar programs--one in atomic, molecular, and optical physics and the other in chemistry--also bring visitors to campus and encourage a strong level of interaction among faculty and students. These seminar programs are complemented by the Chemical Physics course 880 - Frontiers in Spectroscopy, offered bi-annually in Winter quarter.
Both the physics and chemistry departments are among the very best at Ohio State. The University has a continuing commitment to the research goals of these departments.
