As the most fundamental of sciences, physics deals with energy in all its forms: with the interactions of matter and energy, with the structure of matter and with energy-transforming processes. At Wofford there are two tracks offered in physics, the pre-professional track and the industry and education track.
Dr. Mackay Salley, professor and chair of physics, also advises the pre-engineering program. A 1995 Wofford graduate, he teaches both first-year students and majors. Salley enjoys working with Wofford students on undergraduate research projects and traveling and studying with them during the college’s January Interim.
David Aguillard graduated with degrees in physics and mathematics. While at Wofford, he participated in a prestigious summer research program at the CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, in Switzerland. He also worked with a theoretical mathematician at Wake Forest University and with faculty in Wofford’s physics and psychology departments. Aguillard received a full scholarship to begin a doctoral program in physics at the University of Michigan.
