Schools Which Universities Offer Funded Physics Masters Programs?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers around finding funded master's programs in physics that offer tuition waivers and stipends. Participants mention several universities in the U.S. known for funding incoming students, including Miami University, San Diego State University, and North Dakota State University. There is also a consensus that Canadian universities typically provide funding for master's students, with a suggestion to consider options in Canada. The conversation briefly touches on the climate in Canada, specifically mentioning Calgary's unusual weather patterns.

I was wondering if you guys know of any funded masters programs in physics - tuition waiver + stipend; or only stipend enough to cover tuition and modest living expenses. I am not too particular about the country but I am looking for programs where the norm is that the department funds all their incoming students. Any input is much appreciated!

I found the following ones:
Miami University, OH
San Diego State University
North Dakota State University

In Canadian universities, it's typical that master's students are funded, if you're interested in the Great White North.
 
Is there a University of Yellowknife?

Hey thanks. I did apply to a few masters programs in Canada.

No need to go that far for the "Great White North." I once spent a day sightseeing in Calgary during a blizzard... in mid May!

Sounds about right. Oddly enough, Calgary's had more rain than snow this Winter. Temperatures have been above freezing since mid January o_O.
 
Hello, I’m an undergraduate student pursuing degrees in both computer science and physics. I was wondering if anyone here has graduated with these degrees and applied to a physics graduate program. I’m curious about how graduate programs evaluated your applications. In addition, if I’m interested in doing research in quantum fields related to materials or computational physics, what kinds of undergraduate research experiences would be most valuable?
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...
