物理系提供研究生课程，导致获得物理学硕士学位。工业实践课程是博士学位的重要特征。应用物理课程可让学生获得大学以外实验室的第一手经验。这种经验直接支持我们的博士生努力将在学术环境中获得的基础知识与实际应用和挑战联系起来。论文选修课-三个研究生级别的选修课（九个学分），其中至少两个必须在物理学之内，另外还有六个学分的硕士学位论文或定向研究。PHY 6911，PHY 6935和PHY 6971将不会计入选修课。此外，候选人还必须出示并成功捍卫书面论文。非论文选修课-五门研究生水平的选修课（十五学分），其中至少两
The Department of Physics offers graduate programs leading to an M.S. in Physics. The industrial practicum course is an important feature of the Ph.D. program in Applied Physics allowing students to gain first-hand experience in laboratories outside of the University. This experience directly supports our doctoral students in their efforts to connect fundamental knowledge acquired in the academic setting with real-world applications and challenges. Thesis option - Three graduate-level elective classes (nine credit hours), at least two of which must be within physics, plus six credit hours of master?s-thesis or directed research. PHY 6911, PHY 6935, and PHY 6971 will not count toward the electives. In addition, the candidate must present and successfully defend a written thesis. Non-thesis option - Five graduate-level elective classes (fifteen credit hours), at least two of which must be in physics. PHY 6911, PHY 6935, and PHY 6971 will not count toward the electives.
