- Phd Program Details:
The doctoral program is designed to prepare students for a career as a independent researcher in one of the frontier areas of research in physics or astrophysics. Upon completion of coursework in one of two tracks, physics or astrophysics, students begin research under the guidance of a faculty member in order to develop a deep understanding of the foundational principles and limits of modern knowledge in a program subfield. Students develop skills needed to enable them to pursue original research, which are also transferable to non-academic research. Completion of a thesis based on original research is required for the Ph.D.
