Current Eberly faculty members include fourteen members of the United States National Academy of Sciences,[2] considered one of the highest honors that can be bestowed upon a U.S. scientist, and three members of the British Royal Society. Eberly faculty members were the first to: "see" an atom (physicist Erwin Mueller); formulate covariant quantum gravity (physicist Abhay Ashtekar); discover practical synthesis of the pregnancy hormone progesterone (chemist Russell Marker);[3] and discover planets outside the Solar System (astronomer Alex Wolszczan). University researchers also designed the world's largest optical telescope, the Hobby-Eberly Telescope.

College graduates include Nobel Prize winner Paul Berg and three U.S. astronauts. Langkilde was appointed the dean of the Eberly College of Science on October 1, 2020.<ref>http://science.psu.edu/about/meet-the-dean
