About the program

A specific program, depending on the research interest of the student, is established by consultation between the student and his/her advisor.

Major areas of study include the following:

  • Computational physics
  • Theoretical and experimental optics
  • Diagnostics using the techniques of conventional, imaging, and laser spectroscopy
  • Experimental and theoretical nuclear structure physics
  • Astrophysics
  • Astrochemistry

All students of the Applied Physics program at Mississippi State University are strongly encouraged to dual enroll in the MS program, and receive a non-thesis MS in Physics along the way. The Graduate Committee has at least four Physics graduate faculty with the major professor as chair. In addition, in the Physics PhD program, an external graduate faculty from the College of Arts and Sciences must be included, and for the Engineering PhD program a graduate faculty from the Bagley College of Engineering must be included.
