After many years of inactivity, the observatory located atop Stabler Hall was renovated and reopened in March 2025. The revitalization was due in part to the overwhelming enthusiasm sparked by the university\u2019s public event for the Great North American Eclipse on April 8, 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Gregory Guisbiers, associate professor of physics and astronomy, plans to hold about 10 observations annually, offering both daytime and nighttime events. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Daytime sessions will allow visitors to observe the sun, including sunspots and eclipses, while nighttime viewings will focus on planets, meteor showers, and galaxies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

History<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The observatory\u2019s dome was originally built in 1930 by newspaper executive Frederick Allsopp for his astronomy-enthusiast wife. In 1970, Dr. J.W. Downs donated the observatory to UA Little Rock, where it was installed on Stabler Hall during the tenure of Chancellor Carey V. Stabler. In its prime, the observatory hosted up to 70 events a year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the success of UA Little Rock’s eclipse events in 2024, Dr. Guisbiers received approval from university leadership to begin restoration efforts of the observatory. The team of faculty, staff, and students cleaned out the space, installed new flooring, painted, and then prepared to reinstall an 11-inch telescope in the dome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The revitalization of the observatory not only marks an important chapter in UA Little Rock\u2019s history but also reaffirms the university\u2019s commitment to fostering scientific curiosity and engagement for students and the community alike.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Student learning objectives and goals are the same for both the Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of Science degrees in the program of Physics and Astronomy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Learning Objective 1:<\/strong> Students will demonstrate basic knowledge in all the major areas of physics, including mechanics and relativity, electromagnetism, statistical thermodynamics, optics and waves, quantum mechanics, and atomic physics. This learning goal addresses critical thinking, information technology, competency in mathematics, and competency in the philosophy and methods of science.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Learning Objective 2:<\/strong> Students will demonstrate basic competency in independent research and effective communication skills. Students must be able to define a research question, develop a research plan, conduct research, and to present the research work effectively. This learning goal addresses critical thinking, information technology, and competency in the philosophy and methods of science.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To achieve our mission and objectives, our department supports a variety of activities. The department offers the basic physics foundation courses (i.e., Electronics, Classical Mechanics, Electromagnetism, Quantum Mechanics, and Statistical Thermodynamics) and a variety of elective classes (i.e., Mathematical Methods in the Physical Sciences, Medical Physics, Solid State Physics, and Optics) at least once per academic year. The program also offers special topic classes as needed. We also offer an Astrophysics elective, but it is only offered every other year. We also host a student organization, which is involved in a variety of public outreach and service activities on and off campus. Faculty are also heavily involved in research.

They can conduct basic research at a university or a national laboratory, or applied research in an industrial or commercial setting. Experimental physicists usually work in a lab and seek to test hypotheses and theories, to make discoveries of new phenomena, or to develop new applications of ideas. Theoretical physicists use math to develop explanations of experimental data, formulate new theories, and make new predictions hypotheses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recently, a third branch of physics has emerged, computational physics, in which high-performance computers are used to do calculations which can not be done analytically, or to simulate experiments that are difficult or impossible to perform in a laboratory.

We also offer a minor in astronomy and a minor in physics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Physics is the basic science that underlies all the natural sciences. Discoveries by physicists, like quantum phenomena and the theory of the Big Bang, have transformed our view of the natural world. Inventions like the transistor and the laser have fueled the modern technological revolution. Physicists work in a <a href=\"https:\/\/ualr.edu\/physics\/what-do-physicists-do\/\">variety of professions<\/a> in science, technology, and education. We look forward to more exhilarating breakthroughs in the future \u2013 a future full of exciting opportunities for today’s physics students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-bachelor-of-science-in-physics\">Bachelor of Science in Physics<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/catalog.ualr.edu\/preview_program.php?catoid=20&poid=5312\">Bachelor of Science in Physics<\/a> prepares students for admission to graduate work in physics or astronomy. Students desiring a career in astronomy normally major in physics.

Students interested in teaching at the junior high school and high school levels in public schools across Arkansas must be licensed by the Arkansas Division of Elementary and Secondary Education in a state-approved subject area. UA Little Rock programs offered by content area in collaboration with the School of Education are designed to prepare students for licensure and successful entry into the teaching profession. Candidates for licensure must complete the program, pass examinations mandated by the state, complete clinical experiences in 7-12 schools or K-12 schools depending on the licensure area, and pass a criminal background check.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-research-opportunities\">Research Opportunities<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Students have the opportunity to conduct materials <a href=\"https:\/\/ualr.edu\/physics\/research\/\">research<\/a> involving such topics as micro- and nano-fabrication, solid state physics, bio-materials, smart materials, and more. Students may also engage in astrophysics research. Areas of interest include the nature of central super massive black holes, the amount and distribution of dark matter in galaxies, and spiral structure.<\/p>\n\n\n<a class=\"lr-button maroon-solid\" href=\"https:\/\/ualr.edu\/physics\/contact-information\/\">Request More Information<\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The University of Arkansas at Little Rock offers a Bachelor of Science in Physics and a Bachelor of Arts in Physics.
