The Department of Physics offers graduate programs that lead to the master of arts (MA), master of science (MS), and doctor of philosophy (PhD) degrees. The traditional master’s degree programs, leading to a MA or MS degree, consist primarily of course work and require one to two years to complete.
The physics department awards either a “General Master’s Degree” or an “Applied Master’s Degree” depending on course of study. For information on the Applied Physics degree, see Physics (Applied), Master's Industrial Internship Program.
