Many of today’s most interesting jobs need advanced physics skills. But many undergraduate engineering programs require only a year of physics.

It’s the kind of physics needed wherever fields are advancing—from gate technology used in the advancement of flash drives and solid state drives, to laser technology for the next Playstation, to nanofabrication.

The programme offered by the Illinois Institutie of Technology is an option for high school or college physics teachers who want to earn their master's degree in applied physics.

You will build your knowledge of quantum physics, optics, laser physics, physics of fluids, applied electrodynamics, and other areas. Coursework also helps build problem-solving, quantitative, and analytic skills, which are good for many jobs. You may take many courses online, including the quantum physics courses. A doctoral degree is possible after receiving this degree.
