Physics,
PHD
The objective of the Ph.D. program physics is to assist the student in gaining an understanding of physics with which they form a basis for independent research, as well as to give the student the experience of doing significant research under the guidance of a mature scientist. Graduate study is designed to represent the discipline as broadly as possible and to enable the student to learn the principles and general methods used in problem solving and in research. Both theoretical and experimental approaches are therefore included in the program.
