Hello,
I was wondering if anyone has any knowledge of the physics departments at Suny Binghamton, buffalo, or geneseo. I got accepted to all and was curious on hearing how the department works as a whole, research opportunies, etc.

Thanks you.

I have a lot of friends who go to SUNY Buffalo. They tell me that the research activity there is not extremely outstanding (in regards to the amount of research that goes on) but not minimal either.

I'm not too familiar with the physics department specifically though so it might be different from the life sciences...

The people I know who go to SUNY Binghamtom just party like crazy.

I meant to say the people I know that attend Bing party too much. I wouldn't really know if everyone that went to Bing was like that.
 
Hey, I am Andreas from Germany. I am currently 35 years old and I want to relearn math and physics. This is not one of these regular questions when it comes to this matter. So... I am very realistic about it. I know that there are severe contraints when it comes to selfstudy compared to a regular school and/or university (structure, peers, teachers, learning groups, tests, access to papers and so on) . I will never get a job in this field and I will never be taken serious by "real"...
