物理(B.S.) /物理(M.S.)
Simultaneously earn a bachelor of science and a master of science in physics in this accelerated master's degree program.
威尼斯人平台 is an excellent choice for graduate study in physics as the department is small, 学院的, and collaborative. 研究 is organized into small groups of faculty members, post-doctoral associates, graduate students, and undergraduate students working closely on related projects. Classes are generally small and informal, and thesis research is carried out in close collaboration with the faculty advisers.
Faculty provide personal attention and support. At the same time, 威尼斯人平台 is a major research institution with connections to Argonne National Laboratory, 费米实验室, and global physics experiments such as Daya Bay. Major areas of research include particle and accelerator physics, condensed matter physics, superconductivity, 生物物理学, and computational 生物物理学. Faculty have special expertise in areas such as XAFS and synchrotrons.
