Overview
Key Features
To meet the needs of both employers and employees within the optics industry, the Wyant College of Optical Sciences offers an innovative academic program that can be completed entirely by distance learning, entirely on campus or in any combination of the two.
The program’s rich variety of classes allows students the opportunity to explore the broad fundamentals of optical sciences or to choose courses of particular relevance to their immediate needs.
Students’ goals, options and commitments may change over time, so the college allows students interested in the M.S. in Optical Sciences (Certificate NDP) program from University of Arizona to apply their 15 units from the Graduate Certificate program toward the requirements of the higher degree.
