    Master Programs in Applied Physics

    A masters degree in Applied Physics equips students with knowledge that enables them to contribute to technological development. This program enables one understand the world around them and the way it develops. Generally, a masters degree program in Applied Physics focus on both common topics for the whole class as well as specialization in one of the three main areas, which include: experimental, theoretical and computational techniques.

    Applied Physics is a science that is based on experiments, measurements and mathematical analysis in order to find laws for everything from micro-cosmos to macro-cosmos. If not for creative people with sound knowledge in Applied Physics, no man would have set his feet on the moon, and no parent would have got the chance to watch his or her children on ultrasound. From the knowledge of applied physics, transistors and lasers, which provide the basic knowledge for computer development and communication, were made. Applied physics is the mother of almost all-technological development.

    A masters program in Applied Physics focuses on future scientific solutions and technological innovations. The program places emphasis in material physics, biotechnical physics, and theory and modeling physics. Examples of current engineering pursuits through applied physics are the next generation car batteries, nano-color routing antennas and nano-chip solutions.

    The masters program provides a broad knowledge that one can apply in several fields. A typical career path for a Master in Applied Physics begins with a position in the research and development department. After a few years of experience in research and development, many Masters graduates in applied physics move into project management
