Applied Physics
The quickening pace of development at the
frontier between physics and engineering
creates a need for interdisciplinary training
and research which is not readily accommodated
by traditional single-focus graduate programs.
The University of Michigan Applied Physics
Program is designed to fill this gap, providing
students with the opportunity to gain a solid
base in the fundamentals of modern physics
while exploring applications in the context of
various branches of engineering.
The program, which spans the Physical
Science Division of the College of Literature
Science and the Arts and the College of
Engineering, offers graduate studies leading to
the Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) degree in
Applied Physics. Coursework and research are
structured to meet individual goals so that the
program is appropriate for students intending
to pursue careers in industry, academia, or
government service.
From nonlinear optics to the latest
developments in ultramicroscopy, Michigan has a
distinguished record of innovation in applied
physics. With a broad range of
multidisciplinary research, and access to the
most advanced facilities, the program offers a
dynamic environment for graduate training. The
opportunities and challenges for bridging
science and technology have never been more
exciting, nor the potential impact on our
society's needs greater. The University of
Michigan Applied Physics Program is committed
to a leading role in this endeavor.
