As a high school student, Matthew (Matt) Kafker earned the Andrew M. Dawson Physics Prize, an honor bestowed on students who excel in their studies. Currently, Matt Kafker is taking on a well-rounded course load in math, computer science, and literature while working toward an undergraduate degree in physics.
Each year, major research and academic institutions are ranked to determine which universities are the best for a given subject. Physics departments are usually scored based on the academic achievements of their faculty and the career prospects of their graduates.
In 2018, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in Cambridge was recognized as the top school for physics in U.S. News and World Report’s education rankings. MIT’s robust research program allows undergraduates to obtain extensive theoretical and practical knowledge in the field. The university awards nearly 600 bachelor and graduate level degrees in physics every year.
While the majority of the top universities for physics majors are located in the US, there are many notable institutions worldwide, such as Oxford University in the UK and the University of Tokyo in Japan.
