About the College
;/strong>;/strong>;/strong>
About the Department
About the Center for Accelerator Science: Hampton Roads is the host of the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility (Jefferson Lab), one of the premier accelerator facilities in the world and the pioneer of superconducting radiofrequency technology. ODU has capitalized on the proximity of this National Lab through its longstanding collaboration with Jefferson Lab in Nuclear Physics (since the 1990's). In 2008, ODU, with the support of Jefferson Lab, created the Center for Accelerator Science (CAS), to expand this collaboration. As a result, ODU is one of the few academic institutions in the country and the world where the next-generation accelerator scientists and engineers can be trained to provide the needed workforce for the design, construction, and operation of particle accelerators. Since its creation in 2008, CAS has received more than $16M in external funding and has graduated over 25 Ph.D. students. Many of those students now have leadership positions in DOE laboratories. CAS faculty, staff, and students are key participants and have a leading role in several large-scale international accelerator projects.
