Internship Requirements: Candidates for MS in Photonics who do not have a prior or current experience in relevant industries must take at least one industrial internship course for a minimum of 2 credits.

Candidates who do have relevant industrial experience might substitute industrial internship for a different elective laboratory course. The relevance of the work experience is determined by the department. Minimum number of internship credits 2

Final Project: Candidates for MS in Photonics must complete and defend a final project, which can be done working individually or in groups up to 3 students by registering in their final semester for the PHYS 798 Thesis course bearing 4 credits.
