Please be advised that Graduate Admissions office is no longer accepting paper applications:\u00a0<\/span>Online graduate applications page<\/a><\/p>\n The Physics Department offers a full spectrum of courses and research opportunities leading to the M.A. degree in Physics. This program prepares the student for a variety of scientific careers, the most common of which are Teaching, Medical or Health Physicist, Computer Programming or Physics related jobs in industry, e.g., with semi-conductor companies. It can also satisfy the first thirty credits required for the Ph.D. degree in Physics.<\/span><\/p>\n Truly outstanding majors are able to participate in the B.A.-M.A. program upon recommendation of the Department Chair.<\/span><\/p>\n ºì¶¹ÊÓÆµ is one of the four Senior Colleges of CUNY participating in the Ph.D. program in Physics. The Ph.D. program is a City University program, and is administered as such, with central administrative offices located at the City University Graduate School. Never-the-less all research in a variety of theoretical and experimental fields leading to the Ph.D. degree in Physics can be carried out at ºì¶¹ÊÓÆµ.<\/span><\/p>\n The Pre-Engineering program at ºì¶¹ÊÓÆµ is administered by the Physics Department. It offers courses that are equivalent to those taken in the first two years of Engineering school. By choosing a proper selection of these courses, ºì¶¹ÊÓÆµ students can transfer into the fourth or fifth semester of most Engineering schools in the country. Formal transfer programs are articulated with\u00a0<\/span>City College<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<\/span>Columbia University<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n The Physics Department also offers an introductory sequence which is required for students in the Pre-Health Professional track. Students who take this track go on to either Medical School, Optometry School or a Physical Therapy Program.<\/span><\/p>\n Read more<\/a><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][dsm_text_divider header=”M.S. in Optics and Photonics Technologies” text_alignment=”left” divider_style=”none” _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” header_font=”Open Sans|600||on|||||” header_text_color=”#000000″ custom_margin=”||10px||false|false” custom_padding=”||0px||false|false” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/dsm_text_divider][et_pb_divider color=”#E71939″ divider_weight=”2px” _builder_version=”4.22.2″ _module_preset=”default” width=”12%” width_tablet=”22%” width_phone=”42%” width_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_margin=”0px||0px||true|false” custom_padding=”0px||0px||true|false” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.2″ _module_preset=”default” text_font_size=”16px” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Successful completion of the Professional Science Master\u2019s (PSM) Degree in Optics and Photonics Technologies provides its graduates with:<\/span><\/p>\n Read more<\/a><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][dsm_text_divider header=”PH.D.
