在这里学什么？

The Department of Physics offers a program leading to the Master of Arts in Physics. The objective of the program is to enable students to acquire the knowledge and skills needed in physics-related occupations in industry, community college teaching, or entry into Ph.D. programs in science education. Students who intend to eventually obtain a Ph.D. degree in physics should enroll directly into the Ph.D. program. Thirty hours of graduate credit are required. These credits shall include PHYS 6150, PHYS 6220, PHYS 6300, and PHYS 6620. An additional requirement is a grade point average of 3.00 or higher in the above four required courses, or to complete a Master’s Thesis.

Program Requirements

The 30 semester hours of graduate credit must include the following:

1. Eighteen hours of required courses in physics, namely:

Substitutions for these courses may be made only with the approval of the graduate advisor.

PHYS 6100 - Research Seminar Credits: 1 hour PHYS 6150 - Mathematical Physics Credits: 3 hours PHYS 6200 - Computational Physics Credits: 2 hours PHYS 6220 - Quantum Mechanics I Credits: 3 hours PHYS 6240 - Statistical Mechanics Credits: 3 hours PHYS 6300 - Classical Mechanics Credits: 3 hours PHYS 6620 - Electricity and Magnetism I Credits: 3 hours

2. Minimum grade point average in four core courses or thesis option:

Either successful completion of PHYS 6150, PHYS 6220, PHYS 6300, and PHYS 6620 with a grade point average of 3.00 or higher, or satisfactory completion of 6 credit hours in:

PHYS 7000 - Master’s Thesis Credits: 1 to 6 hours

3. Additional Hours

Additional hours from Physics, Computer Science, Electrical Engineering, Mathematics, or other departments to be chosen with the consent of the graduate advisor.

Graduate students are required to attend the physics colloquia, which constitutes a program for graduate students and physics faculty, presented by members of the WMU physics faculty and visitors from other institutions on topics related to their research specialties. Graduate students are also expected to attend public lectures sponsored by the Department of Physics.
