• The Applied Physics Program is designed for students intending to pursue coursework and research leading to the Ph.D. degree. Accordingly, students are not admitted as candidates for the Master of Science degree. Under certain circumstances students may elect to terminate their study early and would then be eligible for a master's degree after they have satisfied the following requirements:
  • Minimum Number of Credits Required: 30 credit hours. Up to six credit hours may be transferred from other graduate programs or universities subject to program approval.
  • Specific Course Requirements: At least 20 hours of graduate level courses from the Applied Physics core curriculum at the 500-level or higher. Students must attain at least a B average in order to satisfy requirements.
