I. College Introduction
The School can be traced back to the establishment of the University Physics Teaching and Research Office in 1952.The college currently has two doctoral programs and postdoctoral research stations in the first level discipline of physics and the second level discipline of physical electronics. Physics is a key discipline in Guangzhou and has been ranked in the top 1% of ESI global rankings since 2011. We have four provincial-level research platforms, including Guangdong Optoelectronic Engineering Technology Research and Development Center, Guangdong University Semiconductor Lighting Engineering Technology Research Center, Guangdong Third Generation Semiconductor Materials and Devices Engineering Laboratory, and Guangzhou Key Laboratory of Wide Bandgap Semiconductor Chips and Application Systems. We also have two provincial-level demonstration centers, Guangdong Physics Experiment Teaching and Guangdong Electronic Process Experiment Teaching. The college has a complete talent cultivation chain from undergraduate, master's, doctoral to postdoctoral, with two undergraduate majors in Applied Physics and Optoelectronic Information Science and Engineering (all of which are national first-class undergraduate major construction points). It also recruits master's students in five majors including Theoretical Physics, Condensed Matter Physics, Optics, Acoustics, and Physical Electronics, and doctoral students and postdoctoral staff in Physics and Physical Electronics.Welcome to the school website:
