The current research areas and active research topics for the Ph.D. programs include (i) biophysics, (ii) nanosciences and condensed matter physics, and (iii) theoretical physics and quantum computing physics. Our aims are not only to foster collaborative research atmosphere and generate collective research output in the department, but also to integrate laterally with research in other departments (applied mathematics, chemistry, life science, materials science, computer science and information engineering, electrical engineering etc.) and vertically with the development strategy of the university at the cutting-edge new sciences (life science, environmental science, oceanic science etc.).
In addition to the “Academic Regulations” of the National Dong Hwa University, the Department of Physics imposes the following regulations on the curriculum of its international Ph.D. program.
To fulfill the Credit requirement:
(a) Minimum credits for graduation: 35
(b) Required course credits: 32
(c) Minimum elective course credits: 3
