What some recent graduates of the University of Kentucky Department of Physics and Astronomy are doing:
Cameron Ditty - At the Univesity of Kentucky
pursuing a masters degree in radiation medicine.
John Eifler - At Caltech for the next
year doing research in molecular modeling. They look to minimize the potential energy for molecules in
order to find the most stable structure.
Nicholas Chapman - graduate work at the University of Maryland Astronomy Department with fellowship support
Chao Ieong, a double major in electrical engineering and physics - graduate work in physics at the University of Florida with a teaching assistantship
Garrett Otto, a double major in physics and math - graduate work in physics at MIT with a research assistantship to work on particle beams
Ryan Porter, a triple major in electrical engineering, physics and math - with support of a teaching assistantship doing graduate work in physics/astronomy at the University of California at Santa Cruz
Darren Tapp, a double major in physics and math - doing graduate work with teaching assistantship support in mathematics at the University of Kentucky
John Pearson - graduate work in
physics at Princeton with NSF fellowship. John is a finalist for the
American Physical Society's 1999 Leroy
Apker Award for Undergraduate Physics
Achievement. This is a prestigious
national award, only one being granted
per year to an undergraduate at a
Ph.D.-granting institution,
Mark Jones - graduate work in physics at Cal Tech
Aaron Maschinot - graduate work in physics at MIT
Sean Stave - graduate work in physics at MIT
Charles Greenwell - graduate work in astronomy at University of Maryland
