Oppenheimer graduated from Harvard with a bachelor's degree in chemistry in 1925 and from the University of Göttingen with a PhD in physics in 1927, where he studied under Max Born. He joined the physics department at the University of California, Berkeley after conducting research at different universities. In 1936, he was promoted to full professor at Berkeley. He made important theoretical contributions to physics including work on molecular wave functions, electrons and positrons, nuclear fusion processes, and early quantum tunneling theories.

Oppenheimer, a New York City native, graduated from Harvard University with a
bachelor of arts in chemistry in 1925 and from the University of Göttingen in
Germany with a doctorate in physics in 1927, where he studied under Max Born. After conducting research at different universities, he joined the University of California, Berkeley's physics department. In 1936, he was promoted to full professor. He made important contributions to theoretical physics, such as the Born-Oppenheimer approximation for molecular wave functions, work on the theory of electrons and positrons, the Oppenheimer-Phillips process in nuclear fusion, and early work on quantum tunneling. He also made contributions to nuclear physics and quantum mechanics. He has contributed to the theories of neutron stars and black holes, quantum field theory, and
