Master of Science in Physics

The Master of Science in Physics degree requires 30 hours of physics course credit. These hours must include 6 hours of 8000 level Special Problems or Master's Practicum research (with a physics faculty member) and the following six graduate physics courses:

1. PHYS 6101 Classical Mechanics I (3)
2. PHYS 6103 Electromagnetism I (3)
3. PHYS 6104 Electromagnetism II (3)
4. PHYS 6105 Quantum Mechanics I (3)
5. PHYS 6106 Quantum Mechanics II (3)
6. PHYS 6107 Statistical Mechanics (3)

The remaining 6 credit hours may be earned from either: a) physics lecture courses at the 4000 level or higher; or b) graduate courses at the 6000 level or higher from a school other than physics.
