Graduate Students

The graduate program in physics at Notre Dame is primarily directed toward the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.). While programs leading to the degree of Master of Science are also available, preference for admission is given to those applicants who have the ability and intention to become candidates for the Ph.D. degree. At present there are about 100 graduate students in physics. Entering graduate students are selected on the basis of their academic record, scores on the Graduate Record Examination, and the recommendations of scientists who are acquainted with their undergraduate work.
