Following successful completion of these two parts, the student may submit the paperwork for doctoral candidacy. The Doctoral Qualifying Examination consists of two parts: The Credentials Certification and the Dissertation Proposal. However, at least six structured courses (18 credit hours) approved by the Director of Graduate Studies must be completed at USF in a discipline related to the Ph.D. The Director of Graduate Studies will evaluate coursework and may waive specific requirements with the substitution of other approved graduate coursework.
Students entering with a prior master’s degree from an institution other than USF must complete a minimum of 45 credit hours. Students Entering with Prior Master’s Degrees from Other Institutions program must indicate whether they are requesting the medical-physics concentration option.
GRE General Test scores required, GRE Physics Subject Test scores recommended.Īpplicants for admission to the Ph.D.Must meet University Admission and English Proficiency requirements as well as requirements for admission to the major, listed below. degree program in “Applied Physics with an emphasis in medical-physics” has been accredited since 2015 by the Commission on the Accreditation of Medical Physics Education Programs, CAMPEP. Our graduates find employment in academia, national laboratories, hospitals, finance, and industry. Our research strengths include (but are not limited to) materials science, solid-state and condensed-matter physics, computational physics, biophysics, spectroscopy, and optics. Applied Physics seeks both fundamental knowledge and new ideas that benefit society. In between, we always keep in mind the applications both of physics and of the results of our research. Some of us collaborate with engineers, others with mathematicians. The Department of Physics at the University of South Florida expresses an inclusive vision of applied physics. Physics students also frequently participate in national research competitions such as the EPA Student Design Competition and the NASA-funded MnSGC quadcopter challenge.Medical Physics (Optional) Contact Information Analyzing microstructures and compositions of materials used in forensic science, materials science, pharmaceuticals, and anthropology with our newly acquired environmental scanning electron microscopeĭuring your research process, you’ll collaborate with scientists at major research institutions, publish your research in scientific journals, and present your work at local, regional, and national conferences.Using nanoscale materials and developing methods to monitor drinking water quality for rural and urban communities.Applying new computer image processing techniques to help telescopes in light-polluted areas detect “exoplanets”-planets around other stars.Testing how household materials could improve telemedicine through inexpensive and accessible material for determining a patient's health.Developing energy conversion and storage devices like solar cells, lithium ion batteries, and supercapacitors.The list of possible research projects is as varied as our students. You'll design and conduct your own research project based on your individual interests and goals. We partner with Washington University to offer a dual degree program for students to earn both a liberal arts degree and an undergraduate or master's engineering degree, and our students participate in internships with local Fortune 500 employers such as 3M, Honeywell, Medtronic, and more.Īt Hamline, students participate in research with faculty as early as their first year, something usually reserved for graduate students at other institutions. We host distinguished scholars every year at the annual Malmstrom Lecture in physics, which has drawn around a dozen Nobel laureates to our campus. Hamline physics students frequently participate in national research competitions such as the EPA student design competition and the NASA-funded MnSGC quadcopter challenge. You'll have countless research opportunities-led by students and professors alike-at your fingertips, in fields from astrophysics, renewable energy and materials science to environmental science, optics, and computational physics. With tracks in energy and environmental science, materials science, computation, innovation, and engineering, Hamline's physics department provides a skills-based education that prepares you for almost any technical field. Your physics degree is a stepping stone to an advanced degree and career in physics or engineering.
