Master of Science by Coursework in Physics
項目概述
The current Department of Physics can be traced back through a long and rich history: its earliest forerunner was founded in 1904 as Straits Settlements and Federated Malay States Government Medical School. It was renamed to Raffles College in 1929 and established as a proper university as University of Malaya in 1949. After a further renaming to University of Singapore in 1962 and a merger with Nanyang University in the year 1980, the National University of Singapore was established. It is worth mentioning that famous physicists visited the department, such as Paul A. M. Dirac – a picture of him during a lecture is on display still in the departmental meeting room.
新加坡國立大學物理系曆史悠久:它最早成立于1904年,當時是海峽殖民地和聯邦馬來州政府醫學院,于1929年更名爲萊佛士學院,1949年更名爲馬來亞大學。到1962年更名爲新加坡大學,在1980年與南洋大學合並,成立了新加坡國立大學。值得一提的是,著名的物理學家都曾經來訪過物理系,比如Paul A. M. Dirac–他在演講期間的照片仍在系會議室展出。
Until around 1990, the department was essentially a teaching department with little research activities. At that time, NUS began to transform itself into a research university. Over these past two decades, tremendous efforts have been made in developing the research capabilities of our department, which is now classified as “research intensive”. Below we list the current major research directions.
直到1990年左右,該系基本上是一個教學部門,幾乎沒有研究活動。此後新加坡國立大學開始將自己變成一所研究型大學。在過去二十年中,新加坡國立大學在開發物理系研究能力方面做出了巨大努力,現在變成“研究密集型”院系。下面是目前的主要研究方向:
