Quantum physics is considered one of the most remarkable discoveries of contemporary physics within the past century, paving the way for technological inventions such as the laser, transistor, electron microscope, and semiconductors.  The objectives of this study are to investigate prospective elucidation of the most common learning difficulties, insufficient teaching strategies, and other significant instructional or conceptual problems encountered by science and engineering college students at the senior and/or junior level during the instruction of Quantum Physics. Although conceptual issues about learning and teaching of Quantum Physics were addressed in the current study, this paper mainly focuses on the ways the teachers' approach teaching it, as well as considerations of how the classroom environments should function.
