Top four ranking institutions in undergraduate Physics & Astronomy enrollment in North America: U.Rank of Physics & Astronomy in undergraduate enrollment (2019-2020) in North America: 4.We’ll call it the “Waterloo P&A Index.” Here we go: Of course, the first question that comes to a physicist’s mind is, “what are the errors on those numbers?

Masks are no longer required but suggested should you choose to be extra cautious. This is the first term in three years to feel nearly normal. It’s exciting to think about the great science these talented scholars are going to do here in the next few years. To the first-year students and new postdocs and graduate students, welcome to Waterloo Physics & Astronomy.
