Chemical Physics

There is a rich boundary region between Chemistry and Physics, particularly in areas such as materials science, condensed matter physics, nuclear chemistry and surfaces science. Several faculty at UBC hold joint appointments in Chemistry and Physics and others are members in one department while holding an associate membership in the other. Many faculty collaborate with counterparts in the other department and share the outstanding interdisciplinary research facilities at UBC, such as AMPEL and TRIUMF. Combined Honours Chemical Physics is a challenging program which is designed to provide strong students with an excellent preparation for an advanced degree in either department with interests that lie in the boundary region between Chemistry and Physics.
