    Master of Physics / Department of Physics Program overview The department of physics is one of seven departments forming the college of science. The department is located in the main campus of Al-Quds University in Abu-Dies. This program is a complement to the Bachelor's program, where students are prepared in physics with a focus on the practical aspect and highlights the importance of this subject. The department offers M.Sc. (Master of Science) in physics since 1998 and the regular enrollment is about 20 graduate students. The department has active research programs in biophysics, radiation physics, laser physics, and space plasma physics. Our programs are supported by 8 faculty members from various ranks. Admission Requirements for Master's Degree All applicants must pass an acceptance test or a personal interview or both. The student must have a bachelor's degree in the fields of study directly related to the field of study with at least a good rate. Students can also be accepted without a good rate to obtain a higher diploma in this program and when they get an average of 80% and above in the courses can transfer and get a master's degree. Program Vision The graduate degree in Physics is innovative in nature, designed to produce qualified graduates who would be able to compete worldwide. The main objective of this graduate program is to train the students to continue their graduate studies or work at local universities or colleges. In addition to the preparation for active involvement in independent research. Program Mission The graduate degree program in physics offered by the College of Science & Technology at Al-Quds University will prepare students to active involvement in research.

    UNIVERSITY OF ZAGREB FACULTY OF SCIENCE DEPARTMENT OF PHYSICS Bijeni čka cesta 32, Zagreb PROPOSAL University study bachelor and master of physics Zagreb, January/February 2005. University study bachelor and master of physics According to Instructions of Croatian Rectors Conference, January 14, 2004 1. INTRODUCTION 1.1. The students who complete their university study and obtain the degree Master of physics can find positions with medical institutions, nuclear power stations, metallurgy and shipbuilding industry, as well as with financial institutions (banks, insurance companies), with geophysical institutions, governmental offices etc. The students who obtain the degree Master of physics are competent to be assistants with all faculties, in which physics is included in the study programmes. They can also join the scientific institutions in Croatia as research assistants. The (best) students who are graduated in research physics and obtain the degree Master of physics are competent to continue their postgraduate study, ending with the PhD degree in physics, in Croatia and abroad. 1.2. Physics is fundamental natural science and is the basis for understanding and explanation of natural phenomena and processes which take place in our environment, as well as at most distant points of the Universe. Therefore, all universities, scientific and research institutions all round the world, as well as industrial enterprises have physicists as their employees. The beginning of higher education of (college-level) physics in Zagreb dates back to the 17th century. Within the frames of the Faculty of Arts, the programme of physics was introduced in 1874. The Faculty of Science was founded in 1946, consisting of some departments which were separated from the Faculty of Arts.
