物理学哲学博士

所有博士候选人 学位必须完成72个学分，至少32个居住在研究生院，并且平均绩点（GPA）为B（3.0）或更高。博士 该计划旨在让学生为知识前沿的物理学做准备并进行研究。本系鼓励在对物理学的基本原理和技术有足够的掌握后，立即在一名教师的指导下进行论文研究。一组灵活的课程要求促进了当代物理学更大范围内的深度和广度。众多的研讨会和每周一次的物理座谈会为学生提供了一个很好的机会，让他们了解整个物理学研究的最新进展。教师介绍他们的研究计划的特别讲座可帮助学生了解该系的研究活动。
Physicists come in many forms. Some love tinkering and may be natural experimentalists, some are drawn to elegant theories, some delight in writing computer codes, some have a special talent for communicating science to others, etc. And physicists do many different things in their lives, from public education, to academic research, to industry and tech, to public service and beyond. The goal of the NYU Graduate Program in Physics is to provide outstanding training to a student body which reflects the diversity of backgrounds, talents and skills of the next generation of aspiring physicists, astrophysicists and biophysicists. We want every member of the Department to flourish and find their own path. Our graduate admissions process aims to bring in a capable and committed group of students who are well-positioned to benefit from the training we can provide. No single metric gives a valid and accurate gauge for every person. To that end, admissions decisions are based on the full scope of information in the application dockets, and any individual component is considered in relation to its relevance for the student's aims.<br><br>The Department of Physics offers courses leading to the degrees of Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy. There are opportunities for study and research in both experimental and theoretical physics. Areas of specialization include astrophysics and cosmology, atomic and molecular physics, condensed matter physics, elementary particle physics, quantum field theory and string theory, quantum optics, and statistical physics. Through ongoing faculty recruitment efforts the department continues to develop existing active research efforts and expand into new areas. The PhD program is aimed at enabling a student to prepare for and carry out research in physics at the frontier of knowledge. The department encourages entry into doctoral research under the supervision of a faculty member as soon as one has attained sufficient mastery of the fundamental principles and techniques of physics. Depth and breadth within the larger context of contemporary physics are promoted by a flexible set of course requirements.
