Welcome to the Physics Department Homepage
The St. Olaf Physics Department, in the Faculty of Natural Science and Mathematics (FNSM), offers a strong major with excellent undergraduate research opportunities. St. Olaf is one of a small number of 4-year colleges in the U.S. averaging 10 or more Physics graduates per year. We also offer an array of courses to support work in other FNSM disciplines and provide introductions to physics and astronomy to a general audience. Please check out the links at the left side of this page to find out more about us.
Announcement: Three Physics students have been selected as Rossing Physics Scholars for 2008-09. We congratulate: Dan Endean as a continuing recipient--Barry Constanzi and Charles McEachern as new alternate recipients.

Each pair of students built one digit, using a counter, a driver, and a 7-segment display.
Each digit is clocked by the preceding digit, and can also be clocked (or "set") locally.
