Master of Science in Physics - Computational Physics (Thesis)

Physics and Materials Science is a broad and complex field that uses mathematical models to explain the nature and behavior of all manner of physical systems from the smallest particles inside the nucleus to the entire universe in which we live. The department also has a graduate program at the master and doctoral levels. The master s degree program has concentrations in General Physics Computational Physics and Materials Science. Our Engineering Physics PhD concentration is offered through the Herff College of Engineering PhD program. Physics Program core requirement 9 credit hours Concentration requirement 6 credit hours Thesis 6 credit hours Additional courses 9 credit hours
