Graduate Physics Programs
View information below about graduate programs in physics.
MS in physics
- We offer degree tracks for students wishing to learn physics in more depth than typical of an undergraduate degree. Students who graduate with our MS degree may go into graduate school in physics, graduate school in engineering or directly into industry.
MS in medical physics
- The MS in Medical Physics program offers CAMPEP accredited training for individuals interested in pursuing a career in medical physics. As you gain a solid foundation in advanced physics, you’ll learn how to apply that science to serve the needs of patients and providers in a health care setting.
