About the course
The quickening pace of development at the frontier between physics and other disciplines such as engineering or medicine, 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, bio and medical science, chemistry, geology, environmental science, natural resources and public policy. The program spans the Physical Science Division of the College of Literature Science and the Arts, the College of Engineering, Medical School, School of Public Health, School of Natural Resources and 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 research, industry, academia, or government service.
