Theoretical Particle Physics
Ph.D., University of Wisconsin - Madison, 2006
B.S., University of Wisconsin - Eau Claire, 2000
Terrance Figy is an Associate Professor in the Department of Mathematics, Statistics, and Physics. Terrance Figy is a theoretical particle physicist. He became interested in mathematics and physics at a very young age. He attended the Summer Science Camp at the University of Wiscons-Eau Claire (UWEC), Eau Claire, WI in 1992. This experience fueled his desire to become a particle physicist. In 1996, he started an undergraduate degree in physics and mathematics at UWEC and graduated in 2000. Subsequently, Terrance Figy completed a Ph.D. in physics at the University of Wisconsin-Madison in the 2006. He has held postdoctoral appointments at the University of Durham, Durham, United Kingdom, European Organization for Nuclear Research, Geneva, Switzerland, and the University of Manchester, Manchester, United Kingdom.
