Graduate Degrees

		Master of Science in Applied Physics and Computer Science
		The Master of Science in Applied Physics and Computer Science addresses the need for graduate education in applied physics and computer science. This degree is for both part-time and full-time graduate students who desire excellence in instruction, state of the art equipment and software, and a faculty with an intense involvement in the application of physics and computers to solve exciting and significant problems.

		Five-Year BS/MS Program
		The department has also programs leading to a dual BS and MS degree in Applied Physics and Computer Science after five years of study. For undergraduate students putting in an extra year to obtain the MS, lifetime earnings and the potential for increased opportunities and job satisfaction can increase significantly.

		Teacher Preparation
		Students wishing to become teachers should apply to the five-year Master of Arts in Teaching program. Students will earn a BS in Computer Foundations, Computer Science or Applied Physics after the first four years and then complete an additional year of study leading to an MAT degree.
