    Exchange Program
AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on selecting the best universities for a physics exchange program in the U.S. from a list of lesser-known institutions. Key recommendations highlight the University of Colorado at Boulder, Ohio State University, and Boston University as the top choices due to their notable physics programs. Syracuse University is also mentioned as a potential option, though it is recognized more for its business program. Skidmore College is noted for its liberal arts focus, making it less suitable for a physics-centric education. Overall, the consensus suggests prioritizing Boulder, Ohio State, and Boston University for their strong reputations in physics.

hi everybody,

I´m a physics international student and i m planing to spent a year in a exchange program in the US. Most of the universities i have the possibility to go to are not very famous (at least i don't know very much about them ), so i would appreciate some help choosing the best ones for physics.

The options are:

-American university
-Boston university
-Florida international university
-George Washington university
-Georgetown university
-missouri-sant louis university
-Ohio state university
-sant louis university
-Skidmore college
-Syracuse university
-Tufts university
-University of colorado at boulder ( I think this is the better option)
-University of texas at san antonio
-University of miami
-wayne state university
-san diego state univ

Thanks,
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Boulder, Ohio State and Boston University are the 3 I would choose from your list in terms of notable physics programs. I should point out that this based more on what I have heard about them and not from my experience at any of the 3 schools.

The only school I have any direct experience with is Skidmore as I used to live only about 10 minutes away from the campus. It is more of a liberal arts type school and not really a science based school.

Hope this helps.
 
Syracuse also and maybe miami
 
Miami?? i never heard of it as a good school

anyone?
 
Colorado at Boulder seems well-known for physics...

Isn't Syracuse known for its business program?
 
beetween the options the best in physics are colorado, ohio and bston, in that order. But the next one would be syracuse i think.
 
TL;DR Summary: What topics to cover to safely say I know arithmetic ? I am learning arithmetic from Indian NCERT textbook. Currently I have finished addition ,substraction of 2 digit numbers and divisions, multiplication of 1 digit numbers. I am moving pretty slowly. Can someone tell me what topics to cover first to build a framework and then go on in detail. I want to learn fast. It has taken me a year now learning arithmetic. I want to speed up. Thanks for the help in advance. (I also...
Hi community My aim is to get into research about atoms, specifically, I want to do experimental research that explores questions like: 1. Why do Gallium/Mercury have low melting points 2. Why are there so many exceptions and inconsistencies when it comes to explaining molecular structures / reaction mechanisms in inorganic and organic chemistry 3. Experimental research about fundamental Quantum Mechanics, such as the one being followed by Hiroshima university that proved that observing...
guys i am currently studying in computer science engineering [1st yr]. i was intrested in physics when i was in high school. due to some circumstances i chose computer science engineering degree. so i want to incoporate computer science engineering with physics and i came across computational physics. i am intrested studying it but i dont know where to start. can you guys reccomend me some yt channels or some free courses or some other way to learn the computational physics.
