The School comprises 74 teaching & research staffs, including 1 national prominent teacher, 2 Taishan Scholars of Shandong Province Overseas Distinguished expert, 1 Distinguished Teaching Professor of the universities in Shandong Province, 1 Teaching Excellence Award winner in University of Jinan and 3 Youth Education Experts. There are 12 professors, 25 Associate professor; 31 Doctors, and 15 Master Instructors in the staffs. Our staffs enjoy a good reputation on dedication, teaching and fostering.
The school is grouped into 4 research and teaching centers, which are the Department of Physics, Department of photoelectricity, the University Physics Teaching Center and the University Physics Experimental Center. These centers not only service for undergraduate and graduate teaching tasks of the school, but also support for the teaching mission of physical theory courses and the experimental lessons for all university students. The equipments for teaching and research are worth more than 30 million CNY and the laboratory areas are more than 7,000 square meters, which satisfies the needs of teaching and research.
The school has built the Institute of UJN-Weishi Lighting Technology, the Institute of UJN-Winner Institute of Particle Technology Research and the Institute of Optoelectronic Materials. The advanced computer rooms as well as students practice base and employment base cooperated with more than ten enterprises and schools can well meet the demands of student internships and other practical teaching programs.
The main research fields in the school are Computational materials science, Nano spin electronic materials and devices, Optoelectronic materials and devices, Laser technology and application, Particle physics, and Quantum communication and quantum information. During the "Eleventh Five-Year Plan" period, the school undertook 4 national projects and 11 provincial level projects. At the same period, impressive 137 papers have been published in the core journals of above, among which 89 papers are included by SCI, EI, and 5 of them are patented. Currently, the school has 14 National Natural Science Foundation projects, more than 20 Provincial Funds. The total research funding is more than 9 million CNY. There are 62 research papers have been included by SCI, EI or ISTP in 2013.
The students own strong leaning culture and have many colorful extra-curricular activities. The school own high employment rate and high passing rate on the examination for postgraduate. There are more than 27 percentage graduates passing the examination for Postgraduates in 2013, and most of them were enrolled by "985 or 211 Engineering" universities. In addition, the staff and students got many excellent achievements in these years including National College Students Challenge Cup Competition, National Physics Students Teaching Competition, and Shandong Province University Students Competition of Physical Innovation Skills, etc.
We will pay equal attention to Science and Technology, pay equal attention to teaching and research, build a leading school in the provincial universities with distinctive features.

Introduction of the undergraduate programs
1. Physics (Science)
Physics is one of the most fundamental subjects in human science and technology development. Newton, Einstein etc, are the most famous scientists in the world. Physical phenomena are most common in human activities and the knowledge of physics is most widely used in reality.
The study in physics major will let the students get the main idea on physics theory and methods, get a good training in scientific research, with a strong mathematical foundation and experimental skills as well as a strong innovative spirit and practical ability. Therefore, students can engage in scientific and technological research, teaching and management in physics and the related high-tech science and technology field. The students can also go on their studies to obtain the master degree in physics and relevant disciplines .
The Bachelor of Science degree will be granted.
Main Courses: General physics (Mechanics, Thermal Physics, Electromagnetism, Optics, Atomic Physics), General Physical Experiment, Methods of Mathematical Physics, Theoretical Mechanics, Electrodynamics, Statistical Physics, Quantum Mechanics, Solid State Physics, Modern Physical Experiment, etc.
