goals
Its purpose is to train graduates capable of carrying out original research at the highest level compatible with a Master's or Doctoral degree, whose results constitute a substantial contribution to Physics and its applications
This program is jointly developed by the Faculties of Science and Physical and Mathematical Sciences.
Applicant Profile
Those who meet the following requirements may apply to the program:
Those holding a Bachelor of Science degree with a specialization in Physics are eligible. Additionally, individuals holding an academic degree or professional title whose level, content, and duration of studies correspond to equivalent training, as determined by the Academic Committee, may apply.
The Academic Committee may establish, for certain candidates, leveling activities and deadlines for their completion, as a prerequisite for their admission to the program.
All applicants must have an adequate knowledge of the English language, enabling them to read technical and scientific literature.
Graduate profile
Graduates will have a solid conceptual grasp of general physics as well as in-depth, up-to-date knowledge of their area of specialization, based on research work. They will have developed the skills to clearly and precisely present the knowledge acquired and the results of their research, both verbally and in writing. They will be able to work independently and in groups. Graduates of the Master's program will have had cutting-edge research experience. They will be able to understand recent developments in their area of specialization.
