University of Illinois at Chicago Department of Physics records, 1987-1999.
This collection contains records from the Department of Physics, of the University of Illinois at Chicago. Records include miscellaneous departmental records, as well as files on the Superconducting Super Collider, and the status of students and scholars during the Tiananmen Square incident in 1989.
The Department of Physics originated as a natural science program at the Chicago Undergraduate Division of the University of Illinois, Navy Pier campus, then later expanded after the University's Board of Trustees established a College of Liberal Arts and Sciences and moved the physics department along with the other natural science programs to the main campus in 1964. The department currently conducts research in a wide variety of theoretical and experimental fields in physics, including atomic and molecular physics, biophysics, nuclear and particle physics, and condensed matter. The department operates research laboratories on campus, including the Microphysics Laboratory, Atomic and Molecular Physics laboratory, and the Modern Microscopy Laboratory. Researchers in the department also work off campus at Fermi lab, Argonne National Laboratory, and Brookhaven National Laboratory.
