About Constantine P. Deliyannis

Professor Deliyannis has been on the IU Astronomy faculty since 1997. He received a B.S. in physics from Illinois Institute of Technology in 1980, M. Phil. and M.S. degrees in physics in 1982, and a Ph.D. in physics in 1990 from Yale University. He was a Beatrice Watson Parrent Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of Hawaii and a Hubble Postdoctoral Fellow at Hawaii and Yale. He typically teaches A100 (The Solar System), A221-A222 (General Astronomy I-II), and A451 (Stellar Astrophysics).
