国际学生入学条件
Applicants to the University of Hawai‘i Astronomy Graduate Program should normally have a strong background in physics, including some classical mechanics, electromagnetism, optics, thermodynamics and statistical mechanics, special relativity, quantum mechanics, and nuclear physics. Courses in mathematics through differential equations are also required. An undergraduate course in introductory astronomy is recommended. TOEFL) exam with a score of 560/220 (paper/computer) or higher. To be eligible, an applicant must hold or expect to hold prior to matriculation a bachelor's degree from a regionally accredited U.S. college or university, or an equivalent degree from a recognized non-U.S. institution of higher education. At minimum, the applicant needs to demonstrate above average academic performance (B average, usually a 3.0 on a 1.0-4.0 scale) for undergraduate course work and for any post-baccalaureate or graduate course work.
All international applicants are required to submit one transcript or academic record from each institution of higher education attended, including any study abroad or exchange programs, summer programs, and non-degree work and extension programs. Applicants may submit unofficial copies of transcripts while applying for admission. However, admitted students are required to submit official transcripts in order to enroll at UHM.
Official transcripts or academic records must be sent to Graduate Division Student Services directly from the issuing institution(s), or in sealed institutional envelopes if submitted with the application. Non-English transcripts or academic records must be issued in the original language and be accompanied by English translations. English translations must be exact word for word translations of the original document.

课程简介
The astronomy graduate program is designed for students who want to obtain a doctorate in astronomy and go on to careers in academia or research institutions. A masters in astronomy is also available. For students entering with a bachelor's degree, the first two years of study cover the same material required for a MS degree, so most students aiming for the PhD receive a MS degree along the way. Applicants to the Astronomy Graduate Program typically have a bachelor's degree in physics, astronomy, or a related field. A strong background in physics is essential for successful astronomy students. We require the GRE General Test, and the subject test in physics.The program offers both the Plan A (thesis) and Plan B (non-thesis) MS degrees, but almost all students opt for the Plan B program as it dovetails better with the requirements of qualification for PhD candidacy. The only real advantage of the Plan A master's is that it can be completed within four semesters, it is therefore of interest to those students who want to get a terminal master's degree in the minimum time.Acquisition of a broad knowledge of astronomy and familiarity with both observational and theoretical techniques, Exposure to a variety of advanced and specialized topics in modern astronomy, Extensive hands-on research, including supervised research projects undertaken by all MS students, Experience presenting talks reviewing the literature and describing new research.
