Programs leading to a M.Sc. degree in physics
The Department of Physics at University of Tehran hosts an extensive master's program covering various disciplines. The department offers master's degree in physics for students interested in careers in industry, government, as well as, research and teaching positions.
The number of students is kept to a minimum so as to maintain appropriate supervision and support. The department encourages a close interaction between the students and the faculty members at all times. The department pursues an active research program in the following areas;
- Atomic & Molecular Physics
- Condensed Matter Physics
- Elementary Particle Physics
- Gravitation & Astrophysics
- Nano Physics
- Nuclear Physics
The minimum requirement for the M.Sc. degree is a total of 32 credit-hours. 12 hours of credit are given in advanced Quantum Mechanics, Electrodynamics and Statistical Mechanics. Two hours of seminar are required and 6 hours of credit are given for the thesis. In consultation with their advisers, the students shall select at least 12 additional credits in areas of their interest. The program is normally completed in two years.
