Applied Physics Masters
Training Activities

This degree certifies that the graduates of the program have the following characteristics:

• Graduates posess a sufficiently broad knowledge of physics to cope with any physics problem likely to encountered in a technological context. To achieve this goal, students admitted to the program have demonstrated proficiency in undergraduate physics courses including classical mechanics, electricity and magnetism, quantum physics, and thermodynamics.
• Graduates possess sufficiently specialized knowledge in the area of semiconductor processing to enable them, in a minimum of time, to become an asset to potential industrial employers.
  Note: Currently, semiconductor processing is the only available area of specialization. Specialized training in other areas, e.g. photonics, may become available in the future.
• Graduates are trained in the area of design and implementation of experiments by taking various laboratory courses that emphasize the applications of statistics and microcomputers to the design and interpretation of experiments. These courses give students hands-on experience of modern techniques of data acquisition, data handling and analysis, and graphical presentation of results to provide a broad knowledge of physical measurement techniques and their applications.
• Our graduates will be experienced in project management and understand how to manage timelines and budgets. The internship in industry will help to foster competence in this area.
