Goals/Challenges Continue to increase the number of students/graduates in/from our Applied Physics Major and Physics Minor. Continue to offer excellent curriculum to our majors and in our service courses in an environment with fixed or shrinking resources. Continue our commitment to high quality undergraduate research experiences for our students, and other CSM students Funding tenant improvements in newly allocated research space so faculty and students can carry out high quality research.
