As of October 17th, Physics has a new member and leader of the Department, Dr. David Schultz. Dr. Schultz brings 25 years of experience in research, and 15 years serving as a manager of research and personnel. He has served on national and international advisory and review committees, and has a distinguished record of individual and team research accomplishments. From 2000 to 2011, he was Group Leader of Atomic Physics in the Physics Division of Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Oak Ridge, TN. He has also been an Adjunct Professor and Research Professor at the University of Tennessee since 1998.

In the area of scholarly activity, Dr. Schultz has a prolific record of publication (more than 180 to date) in prestigious journals across a diverse set of physics sub-disciplines ranging from astrophysics to atomic and plasma physics. He is a fellow of the American Physical Society and the Institute of Physics. As a member of the scientific staff at a national laboratory, he led research efforts that received support about $5 million a year from the Department of Energy, NASA, NIH, and other agencies.

The UNT Physics Department is proud to have Dr. Schultz on board as we continue building a successful Department.
