The MS in Physics develops expertise in scientific problem solving and a specialization area in physics. It is offered on the Knoxville and UTSI campuses with thesis, project and coursework-only (with comprehensive exam) options.
Faculty: College of Arts and Sciences | Department: Department of Physics | Duration: 30 graduate credit hours beyond the bachelor's degree | Study mode: full-time | Location: Knoxville, TN, United States
The thesis option includes PHYS 500 Thesis (6 hours), 12 hours from the core (Problems in Theoretical Physics, Quantum Mechanics, Classical Mechanics, Electromagnetic Theory, Mathematical Methods, Numerical Methods) and 12 further graduate physics hours. The project option replaces the thesis with an independent project (PHYS 593 or 594) and oral examination. The coursework option takes the full core plus electives and a written examination. First-year students take a diagnostic examination in undergraduate physics for advising.
Tuition is charged per credit, so the total depends on the modules you register for each year. Current fees are listed in the official fee schedule.
Entry terms: Fall, Spring and Summer. Domestic applicants may apply up to two weeks before the start of the desired term unless the programme sets an earlier deadline.
International graduate applicants on F and J visas: Fall online submission April 15 and file completion May 15; Spring June 15 and October 1; Summer October 15 and February 15. Departmental deadlines may be earlier.
