The Master of Science in Physics provides an intensive academic program designed to develop versatile, exceptional graduates poised to excel as leaders in the discipline.
UTSA's Physics and Astronomy Department hosts Texas' fifth-largest graduate physics program. This collaborative initiative enables graduate students to engage in direct mentorship with UTSA physics faculty and principal researchers from Southwest Research Institute's Space Science and Engineering Division.
Both the Master of Science (M.S.) and Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) in Physics programs facilitate advanced study and original research, equipping students for careers across industrial, governmental, research, and academic sectors.
Students can specialize in diverse experimental and theoretical physics domains, spanning condensed matter, advanced materials, nanomaterials, biophysics, laser spectroscopy, astrophysics, particle physics theory, cosmology, mathematical physics, and computational physics. The program features a strategic collaboration with Southwest Research Institute's Space Science and Engineering Division (SwRI), where appointed Adjoint Faculty enable research in Space Physics specialties like space weather, atmospheric physics, magnetospheric studies, heliospheric phenomena, planetary science, space instrumentation, and computational space physics.
