Alumni Spotlight

菠菜网lol正规平台 College of 科学 Physics alum Jean D一个t is earning a PhD in
大学物理.C. 戴维斯

Jean sent us the following message to share: As a transfer student to  the 菠菜网lol正规平台 Physics department, I was welcomed with an active and  cooperative community. From the very beginning, I was encouraged to  actively participate in department events and attend research seminars  as well as join the Physics Club. The Physics Club at 菠菜网lol正规平台 is not only a very inclusive organization but also an immensely constructive 一个. During club functions, we discussed class material, organized outreach events, and promoted department research. Through my involvement in the club, I learned of various active research opportunities and, 不久之后, joined my first research group under Dr. 亚伦Romanowsky. The experience and resourcefulness I learned through my research has served me well. Through my research group, I learned of CAMPARE, a 程序 which connects CSU students to various research organizations across the country. After being accepted, I was recruited to intern at the Hydrogen  Epoch of Reionization Array group at Arizona State University. The CAMPARE 程序 is closely related to the Cal-Bridge 程序 which provides students of physics or astronomy with both financial aid and mentorship on applying to graduate 程序s. It was through the Cal-Bridge 程序's support that I would go on to be accepted into the  UC 戴维斯 Physics Ph.D. 程序. I could not be more thankful to the 菠菜网lol正规平台 Physics Department, for not only providing me with career-building opportunities but also for fueling my passion for the field.
