Graduate Certificate Programs in Engineering Physics, Applied Physics

Any student who satisfactorily completes the B.S.E. freshman year program or its equivalent is eligible for admission to the program. Engineering students entering the program are strongly encouraged to complete the following courses or their equivalents by the end of the sopho year.

In applying for admission to the program, a student should indicate interest in a particular area of engineering and should be enrolled as a major in one of the six participating engineering departments or in physics.

An engineering physics major will normally satisfy both program and departmental requirements. In some cases, courses taken under the program requirements may be applied toward the fulfillment of regular departmental requirements. The program requirements are as follows:.

All students must take one upper-class course in mathematics (300 and 400 levels).

Engineering majors must take a minimum of six advanced courses in physics (which may include the following 200-level courses: PHY 205, 207, 209, and 210), and must include the quantum mechanics (PHY 208). At least four of the courses must be listed (or cross-listed) in the physics department.

Physics majors enrolled in the program must have five engineering courses, chosen in consultation with their adviser. They are required to take at least two of their engineering courses in a coherent area of study so that a clear engineering stem can be identified.

Program students are expected to demonstrate strong academic performance. To qualify for the engineering physics certificate upon graduation, a minimum grade average of B in the program courses is required.

The Jeffrey O. Kephart '80 Prize is awarded yearly to the Engineering Physics graduating senior with the most outstanding record.

As the use of new Internet-based technologies increase so does the risk of theft and misuse of sensitive information. This demands the awareness of cyber-criminality and the need for cyber hygiene in corporations, small businesses, and government. Therefore, the Engineering, Physics and Technology of Bronx Community College offers an A.A.S. in Cybersecurity and Networking. This A.A.S. program will graduate students who will be employable as entry level networking technicians with introductory skills in cybersecurity. over, the graduates will have the opportunity to earn industry certifications during the course of the degree program, or earn college credit for those they may already hold . Graduates will also attain the academic foundation necessary to advance to a baccalaureate degree.

Program Goals The goals of the AAS in Cybersecurity and Networking are:.

To provide an opportunity to obtain industry certifications (e.g., A+, Security+, etc.) en route to obtaining the A.A.S. Degree in Cybersecurity and Networking.

Learning Outcomes Upon successful completion of the Cybersecurity and Networking program requirements, students will be able to:.

Some breakthroughs are slight, like measuring the exact trajectory of a launched projectile. Others are monumental, like developing groundbreaking theories that explain the fundamental forces of nature. Whatever the puzzle, the world needs creative thinkers to imagine and implement solutions. At SDSU, we train and equip such thinkers to understand the fundamentals of Physics, to conduct sound research, and to tackle the challenges of our modern world.

We provide ample opportunities to experiment and discover your own unique interests. The graduate certificate in applied physics is a 12-credit certificate that provides knowledge and practical experience to have an advanced experience with health physics, nuclear physics or condensed matter physics. Be well prepared to advance in your career path in applied areas of physics, including laboratory management. The certificate will provide training in key elements for success in (materials physics track) areas of physics related to chemistry, materials science, engineering, nanotechnology, atomic physics or biophysics or (nuclear physics track) in the regulatory and management aspects of ionizing radiation, including health physics or the nuclear power industry. Complete the graduate certificate as a stand-alone credential or stacked into the professional science (M.S.).

Engineering Physics, Applied Physics will be a good fit if you:.

Are interested in a career in materials science, health physics or nuclear engineering.
