Atomic nuclei, nuclear processes, and the fundamental forces driving them are the subjects of a research-focused Ph.D. program in nuclear physics. This curriculum, which usually lasts 3-5 years, blends theoretical analysis with experimental study in fields like radiation, nuclear energy, particle physics, and nuclear structure. Students work on innovative projects that include high-energy physics, nuclear models, and applications in industry, energy, and medicine. A strong research proposal and a M. Sc in physics or a similar discipline are typically prerequisites for admission. Graduates go on to work in national laboratories, academia, or the nuclear technology, medical physics, and energy sectors.
