Professional Bio

Greg Francis recently joined the physics faculty at BYU, his old alma mater.  While new to BYU, he is not new to teaching.  He taught physics at Montana State University for  thirty-one years.  During that time, he had the privilege of teaching over 32,000 students.  He is currently an Emeritus Professor of Physics at MSU.  He is the co-author of two textbooks, one for the algebra-based introductory sequence for pre-med students, and the other for the conceptual physics class.  He was awarded the 2021 Robert A. Millikan Medal by the American Association of Physics Teachers.  This award recognizes educators who have made notable and intellectually creative contributions to the teaching of physics.
