Master of Science in Engineering Physics (M.S.E.)
The Department of Physics and Engineering Physics offers a graduate program leading to the M.S. degrees in physics and engineering physics and a Ph.D. degree in physics. Graduate study offers specialized training in areas relevant to the research interests of current faculty members. These areas include theoretical/computational plasma physics/fusion, astrophysics, computational and experimental condensed matter physics, nanotechnology, laser spectroscopy, optics and applications of optics to environmental problems.
The heart of curricula for both programs is the core physics courses in quantum mechanics, classical mechanics, electromagnetic theory, and statistical mechanics. These courses, together with electives in areas of interest to both student and faculty mentors, provide a thorough grounding in physics.
Elective physics courses include nanotechnology, advanced photonics, condensed matter physics, materials science, plasma physics, methods of theoretical physics, general relativity, and electrodynamics. The electives courses take full advantage of the broad expertise of the faculty, all of whom maintain active research projects.
