Ohio State Open House
Ohio State Open House
Check-in post for the Ohio State open house this Thursday and Friday. Who's going? What field do you want to study? What are your thoughts about the school going in? Thoughts during/afterward? Post 'em here.
Re: Ohio State Open House
I'm going. Whoooo!
Prolly high energy physics.
Right now, I'm feeling like it's probably not my top pick. We'll see if that changes.

I'm actually going to be in Akron anyway, so I might drive down if I have time.
Re: Ohio State Open House
I'm heading up to Ohio State in the morning. I'm driving, since my school isn't too far away.
I'm in high energy theory. buddyo, are you theory or experiment?
This will be my first visit, so I've made up a list of questions to ask the professors when we meet with them on Friday.
Weather Thursday should be decent, with a high of 49, but those from outside the Midwest will see how quickly the weather changes here, because there's a winter storm on the way for Friday.

What list would that be?

Re: Ohio State Open House
hope you enjoyed the snow! My friend went to the open house and won't get back for another day cause he was completely snowed in!
Re: Ohio State Open House
I go to school close enough to drive, so I braved the weather on Friday night in order to beat the blizzard on Saturday. I am enjoying the snow, though.

Re: Ohio State Open House
so its another place with nice cold chilly weather ... like where im at now in northeast england
ok about their dept, what did you guys think of the structure of their phd program? they mentioned in their very nice looking prospectus that you can tailor your program according to your personal goals and undergrad prep. im most concerned about the length of program (and in relation to start date of phd research) especially in particle/nuclear theory (which i applied for and just got offered a place)
also did anyone meet their lattice QCD group ? if so how active are they in the field compared to other schools ?
