science, physics, and chemistry, as well as with an economics or data science minor.  The applied mathematics major is offered in alongside the Bachelor of Science in Mathematics, Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics and the Bachelor of Science in Mathematics Education.  The engineering and industry minor will take advantage of courses already offered by the university’s physics department to students in the Dual-Degree Engineering Program. In addition to math and science courses, students will complete an

majors, letters of recommendation, deadlines, etc.) You will need 3 (three) letters of recommendation for Columbia: 1) A letter from the PLU Liaison (that’s me); 2) 1 letter from a Math professor; 3) 1 letter from a Physics professor. (Preferably, this should be from someone different from me, although if you don’t have any other good option, I’ll inquire if I am allowed to provide 2 letters — as a liaison and as a physics professor.) For those of you who are going to apply this cycle, you should

from passionate faculty. It was a coincidence that found Zee studying in Tacoma. His parents had wished their son to have the advantages of an overseas education, but worried what may come of him “without close supervision,” he joked. As it happened, PLU physics professor K.T. Tang visited Hong Kong (Zee was a student at the high school where Tang had once studied) and made an impression on Zee and his parents. “They thought that if I studied physics in Tacoma, Professor Tang could keep an eye on

Students who attend receive a competitive stipend ($7000

July 7, 2008 T-stad: One big, happy family From his perch on the seventh floor of Tingelstad Hall, Adam Whistler can view the expanse of lower campus from PLU’s largest and tallest hall. Whistler, a freshman considering a major in physics, said that while T-stad, as it’s known on campus, wasn’t his first choice, his is very glad that’s where he ended up. What’s not to like? With about 360 residents and nine floors, it’s the largest dorm on campus, both in size and number of students. Whistler
