Congratulations to McNair Scholar Chris Abruscato! Chris has been accepted to Washington State University’s Summer Research Internship. WSU’s Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) is a 10-week experience investigating research centered around waves (ex. shock waves) in the fields of physics and astronomy.
Chris Abruscato is currently a physics major at Eastern Washington University (EWU), forecasted to graduate in Spring 2026. He is a member of the Honor’s Society, as well as a Ronald E. McNair Scholar. Chris is also an active member of EWU’s Physics Club, where various on-campus experiments and guest lectures are organized. He plans to attend graduate school with the goal of earning a PhD in theoretical physics. His research interests are unique quantum phenomena and the philosophical implications of various physical models, including but not limited to the Many-Worlds Interpretation of quantum mechanics.
