The Master’s in Physics at the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (UESTC) is a full-time, two-year graduate program (with possible extension up to four years if needed) that aims to develop students’ profound knowledge of fundamental physics, strong experimental skills, and the ability to engage with cutting-edge research and emerging trends in physical science. The program is housed within the School of Physics, whose objective is to advance physics knowledge and train qualified researchers who can contribute to industrial development and interdisciplinary scientific work. Students in this master’s program study core areas such as Theoretical Physics, Condensed Matter Physics, Radio Physics, Optics, Plasma Physics, and Quantum Physics and Quantum Information, gaining both broad and specialized expertise in these foundational and advanced topics. Candidates are expected to complete the required coursework (typically at least 26 credits for international students, including compulsory academic and elective courses), participate in research under faculty supervision, and demonstrate independent problem-solving skills. The program culminates in a master’s thesis and defense that reflects original insight and research competence. International students are also required to take courses such as A Survey of China and Comprehensive Chinese and usually must pass a Chinese language proficiency test (e.g., HSK 3 or equivalent) by graduation. Graduates are prepared for roles in scientific research, high-tech industries, interdisciplinary engineering, or further doctoral studies in physics and related fields, benefiting from strong research foundations and collaborative opportunities across disciplines.
