Physics grad students at UMass Boston may pursue MS/PhD research in Biomedical Optics, Cancer Biophysics, Neuroscience, Soft Active Matter, Biological Physics, Quantum Foundations, Quantum Information, Atomic Physics, and Quantum Many-Body Physics.

The Department of Physics offers graduate programs leading to an M.S. in Physics, a Ph.D in Applied Physics, and a Ph.D. in Applied Physics with Emphasis in Medical Physics.

Our faculty members are currently conducting research and directing doctoral candidates in the major research areas of atomic, biological, condensed matter, materials, high-energy, nuclear, laser and molecular physics.

Work alongside award-winning faculty while earning an M.S. or Ph.D. in Physics, Applied Physics, or Astronomy.

We offer multiple degree paths including a bachelor’s degree in Physics, a bachelor’s degree in Physics and Astronomy (merged major), a master’s degree in Applied Physics, and a doctoral degree in Applied Physics and Materials Science.

Physicists ask the most fundamental questions about science. Why are we here? What are we made of? What happens if I run 100,000 Amps through a gas or have a magnetic field with more energy per volume than TNT?

The Old Dominion University Department of Physics is focused on the academic and career success of all of our students.

The mission of the UCF Department of Physics is to provide the highest quality education, research, outreach, and service in physics to the people of the state of Florida, the nation, and the world.
