Physics (M.S.)


The department of Physics offers an M.S. in Physics.  However, please note that in the candidate selection process, strong preference is given to applicants who want to study for a Ph.D.  You should also be aware that in our system, it is not necessary to get an M.S. before studying for a Ph.D.  It is possible to do, but will typically delay receiving your Ph.D. by several months.  Most students go directly for their Ph.D.

For more information, please see the Physics  website.
