Overview

The Physics MSc/ MASc course from Queen's University research begun in the 4th year thesis project could be carried forward as a foundation for the graduate thesis, which would create an opportunity for exceptional students to complete the graduate degree within 4 terms.

Key facts:

By working on a research project that will become their master's thesis during the summers after third and fourth years, the students can graduate with a full thesis-based master's degree in 12-16 months after finishing their Bachelor's degree. This saves approximately a year of time compared to students enrolled in the standard master's program. Students also get to work on larger research projects, which would not normally be offered to undergraduate students.

Programme Structure

The Departmental requirements for the master's degree program are a minimum of four term-length courses. At most, one of these four graduate level term-length courses can be jointly offered (double-numbered) with an undergraduate course.
At least two term-length courses must be from among those offered by the Department of Physics, Engineering Physics & Astronomy.
At most two term-length courses may be taken from a department other than the Department of Physics, Engineering Physics & Astronomy, subject to the approval of the Department of Physics, Engineering Physics & Astronomy.
