PhD - Doctor of Philosophy in Applied Physics

Southern Illinois University - Carbondale

The Department of Physics offers four separate undergraduate applied physics degree specializations in addition to Masters and Doctorates in Physics. The Department has several major, federally funded research projects and actively encourages student participation in research of both graduate and undergraduate students. Both experimental and theoretical work is now being undertaken and opportunities abound for research assistantships. Such research, especially for students in our applied physics specializations will provide opportunities for cutting-edge research experience which will aid in job and graduate education. The Department of Physics offers graduate work leading to the Masters of Science degree with a major in physics. The program is two years in length with a thesis requirement. SIUC Physics is a unique program in that it provides many research opportunities within the department offering students a wide choice of specific areas of study.
