Master of Science in Nuclear Science at Australian National University

You will develop a combination of high-level research, analytical and problem-solving skills which are highly valued by industry and government employers. The Master of Physics can be undertaken in one of the following: Astronomy and Astrophysics (astronomy techniques, astro-statistics, galactic dynamics, compact objects, astrophysical shocks, plasma astrophysics, space electrodynamics and high-energy astrophysics) Computational Physics (numerical methods, high performance computing, graphics processing unit (GPU) programming and methods of computational physics) Experimental Physics (data analysis and methods of experimental physics) Medical Physics (commissioning, calibration, safe operation and maintenance of these medical systems that help to diagnose and treat thousands of people every year) Theoretical Physics (discipline-specific knowledge at the frontiers of modern physics).

Develop your advanced research skills and contribute to new developments in applied physics. Our wide-ranging applied physics expertise gives you opportunities to develop specialist knowledge and honed research skills in your chosen area. This master degree may be undertaken in a project or thesis mode. You will also have access to our modern semiconductor clean rooms.
