Programs Engineering Physics and Graduate Degrees

AI Thread Summary
Graduate degrees in Engineering Physics, such as M.Eng and D.Eng, are available at various universities, though offerings can vary significantly. Some institutions allow Engineering Physics students to tailor their studies by selecting courses from related fields like Mechanical Engineering or Chemical Engineering. Many students opt to pursue an additional year for a master's degree in Applied and Engineering Physics or related disciplines, depending on their specific focus within the Engineering Physics major. There are discussions about the challenges of offering graduate degrees specifically in Engineering Physics, which may relate to the interdisciplinary nature of the field and the integration of various engineering principles.

Hello,

I am an Engineering Physics major. Are there graduate engineering degrees offered for engineering physics? For example M.eng and D.eng? At which universities?

Also,

*What is the issue regarding offering graduate degrees with EP?

Thanks,
Jounce

Hello, I am an Engineering Physics major in Cornell University. At C.U, the E.P students pick the classes that they want to focus on more, such as classes focused on MechE, ChemE, etc. Many people usually do one extra year for their masters in Applied and Engineering Physics degree, physics, MechE, ChemE, etc. This is all depended on your focus under the E.P major.
 
Bit Britain-specific but I was wondering, what's the best path to take for A-Levels out of the following (I know Y10 seems a bit early to be thinking about A-levels, but my choice will impact what I do this year/ in y11) I (almost) definitely want to do physics at University - so keep that in mind... The subjects that I'm almost definitely going to take are Maths, Further Maths and Physics, and I'm taking a fast track programme which means that I'll be taking AS computer science at the end...
After a year of thought, I decided to adjust my ratio for applying the US/EU(+UK) schools. I mostly focused on the US schools before, but things are getting complex and I found out that Europe is also a good place to study. I found some institutes that have professors with similar interests. But gaining the information is much harder than US schools (like you have to contact professors in advance etc). For your information, I have B.S. in engineering (low GPA: 3.2/4.0) in Asia - one SCI...
I graduated with a BSc in Physics in 2020. Since there were limited opportunities in my country (mostly teaching), I decided to improve my programming skills and began working in IT, first as a software engineer and later as a quality assurance engineer, where I’ve now spent about 3 years. While this career path has provided financial stability, I’ve realized that my excitement and passion aren’t really there, unlike what I felt when studying or doing research in physics. Working in IT...
