Join us
- Graduate students
We welcome motivated graduate students at UCLA to join the group. Please email us to set up a meeting if you want to know what opportunities we have for students.If you have a strong interest in joining our group while not at UCLA, please apply for the UCLA physics program to become our graduate student, see information on the graduate admissions page. Please make sure to choose the field "Theoretical Nuclear Physics" in your application form, which is our group identification in the department. This is very important in order for us to consider you as a candidate for our group in the admission process and properly review your application.
Our research focuses on QCD theory and phenomenology that span both nuclear and particle physics. You might see a recent summary of the research program given to first-year graduate students at UCLA Department of Physics and Astronomy.
- Undergraduate students within UCLA Physics and Astronomy
For undergraduate students interested in conducting research with us, please consider the following before submitting your CV and transcript:
- Our work focuses on theoretical aspects of fundamental nuclear and particle physics, not experimental research, and is unrelated to nuclear energy
- A solid understanding of elementary particle physics and strong programming skills are highly recommended
- We prefer candidates with a GPA of 3.7 or higher who exhibit exceptional self-motivation and a strong commitment of independent learning
