    PhD Programs in Photonics

    The study of photonics involves understanding the manipulation, generation, and transmission of light particles. This is a newly developed field with a variety of potential applications, making it excellent for those who are interested in engineering or research.

    The PhD is a doctoral degree, specifically called a "doctor of philosophy" degree. This is misleading because PhD holders are not necessarily philosophers (unless they earned their degree in philosophy!). That said, PhD recipients are able to engage in thought experiments, reason about problems, and solve problems in sophisticated ways.
