[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I also have a future physics major from the DMV. He is leaning toward UIUC (didn’t apply to the UC system.). Would love any insight anyone can give on Physics undergrad at UIUC versus any other state school physics department. Are there opportunities for undergrad physics majors that wouldn’t be available elsewhere?[/quote] UIUC has one of the best Physics faculty in the world and he’d be learning from the best. The only state schools in that realm are UCs (Berkeley, Santa Barbara, Los Angeles), University of Michigan, and maybe a few more. In terms of opportunities being different, I’m not sure. I’m sure even kids at lower ranked physics schools have many opportunities. Lots of students from lesser known schools get their PhD from schools like Caltech. It matters more if your kid is a go-getter rather than what school they attended, although coming from a school like UIUC or UCSB definitely helps.[/quote]
