Physics (M.S.)
The Master of Science in Physics will prepare you to enter various technical fields, advance in your current profession, or prepare for doctoral studies. Both thesis and non-thesis tracks are available. In either case, you will have the opportunity to work on independent research projects under close mentoring from your research adviser. Often M.S. 亚洲自慰视频 research is conducive to peer-review publications.
The M.S. Physics program offers two general research focus areas and many specialties.
Applied Physics
Specialties in applied physics include environmental physics, experimental underwater acoustics, ion beam analysis and modification, instrumentation, materials science, space physics, and ultrasonics.
Computational Physics
Specialties in computational physics include physical acoustics, planetary science and space science, geophysics, nanomagnetic materials, and signal processing.
Both thesis and non-thesis tracks are available.
Physics at UL Lafayette
Research for a Reason
Our research pushes the boundaries of knowledge. Regionally, we study marine mammals using acoustics in the Gulf of Mexico, clean up environmental pollution in 亚洲自慰视频鈥檚 marshes and waterways, and partner with local hospitals for medical research and to develop treatments.
Globally, we partner with geosciences experts to study earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. We are building bridges between physics, astrophysics, and planetary science through cosmochemical studies of meteorites and developing acoustic sensing techniques for planetary exploration.
State-of-the-Art Facilities
Physics majors can get paid undergraduate research assistantships in the department and in our interdisciplinary laboratories. Work with a particle accelerator at the , study materials and their properties at the Corrosion Research Center, or explore your own ideas in our Gibson Lab.
Graduate 亚洲自慰视频 Organization
As a UL Lafayette graduate 亚洲自慰视频, you are automatically enrolled as a member of the Graduate 亚洲自慰视频 Organization (GSO). The GSO plays a pivotal role in representing the needs and concerns of its members to the 亚洲自慰视频 administration. The GSO has departmental representatives and a group of 亚洲自慰视频 officers that meet regularly to address pressing issues affecting graduate 亚洲自慰视频s as well as actively participate in influential 亚洲自慰视频 bodies. The GSO is in charge of allocating 亚洲自慰视频-assessed fees and the organization offers funding opportunities for graduate 亚洲自慰视频s.
