Required coursework in physics along with elective courses selected from other disciplines such as mathematics, computer science, chemistry and engineering support a number of career options in industry, education and applied research. Graduates with this degree may also pursue a Ph.D. degree in physics. Areas of research concentration include astrophysics, condensed matter, materials science, nuclear and elementary particle physics, and theoretical physics. Available Options for Degrees A (thesis) and B (non-thesis). Option A requires a thesis based on research, while Option B substitutes additional coursework and a research paper/project for the thesis requirement. The non-thesis options are deemed appropriate for students who do not require Ph.D. preparation in physics in order to be successful in their careers. Examples of career tracks not requiring study in physics beyond the master’s level include medical physics, science education at the k-12 and “community college” level as well as various industrial applications. While deemed less appropriate for students advancing to doctoral study in physics, the non-thesis options are a viable and even preferred course of study for some students. Students should expect that completion of an M.S. degree take two academic years of full-time study. 所属院系 进入哪个院系学习？ Department of Physics 中国学生入学要求 为来自中国的学生设计 Applicants who have completed the equivalent of a four-year bachelor's degree at a recognized institution in any other country must have an academic record equivalent to a 2.70 grade point average (A = 4.00) on their last two years of study for admission to a master's degree program.

Resources available to graduate students in paleontology include the extensive collections of the Museum of Geology. The M.S. in paleontology has a strong emphasis on field-based research as well as courses in museum studies. At the South Dakota School of Mines and Technology, the paleontological research conducted spans diverse subject areas including paleobiology, paleoecology, taphonomy, biostratigraphy, biogeography, evolution and paleoclimatology. Faculty and students combine field research in both modern and ancient settings with museum studies and laboratory analyses to reconstruct past paleoenvironmental conditions and reveal their ecological and evolutionary consequences through geologic time. Collectively, research is focused on three key paleontological questions: How do organisms respond to environmental changes and adapt to different environments? How is biological diversity distributed across space and time? How are paleontologic resources best used and conserved for scientific study? The Accelerated BS/MS option is available for this degree. The thesis option is the only option for the M.S. in paleontology. Graduate Programs Outcomes A graduate of the MS in Geology/Geological Engineering, MS in Paleontology, PhD in Geology/Geological Engineering is expected to: Demonstrate knowledge of concepts and terminology of the discipline Explore and evaluate scientific and technical literature Analyze, interpret, and evaluate scientific and/or engineering data and methods Communicate effectively (in writing and orally) Act professionally and ethically Impact the profession with research 所属院系 进入哪个院系学习？ Department of Geology and Geological Engineering 中国学生入学要求 为来自中国的学生设计 Applicants who have completed the equivalent of a four-year bachelor's degree at a recognized institution in any other country must have an academic record equivalent to a 2.70 grade point average (A = 4.00) on their last two years of study for admission to a master's degree program.

The M.S./MES degree offers an education in the broad area of materials. Students pursuing this degree will expand their knowledge and understanding of the science and technology of materials synthesis, behavior, and production. Graduates of the program formulate solutions to materials problems through the use of multi-disciplinary approaches made possible with a broad background in basic materials science and engineering coupled with an area of specialization. Two options are available in this degree program: one option involves a thesis component and the other option involves coursework only. In the thesis option, 24 hours of coursework and a minimum 6 credit hours of thesis research are required. With the second option, 32 hours of coursework must be taken. In the latter option however, the students are required to undertake a project under the supervision of a faculty member. Because students graduating with this degree are expected to have a broad-based fundamental knowledge in both materials engineering and materials science, every student is required to take the following core courses. The Materials Engineering and Science (MES) program has an accelerated BS/MS degree option that will enable a student to complete both the B.S. and M.S. degrees in as little as 5 years. The accelerated B.S./M.S. program is highly selective, for which students must apply for admission. Students interested in the accelerated program are strongly encouraged to apply at the end of their junior year. A minimum undergraduate cumulative GPA of 3.0 at the time the student applies to the program is required. The MES program may grant exceptions to the GPA requirement under situations approved by the Dean of Graduate Education. Up to 12 credits of 400/500/600 credits applied toward the B.S. program may also be used to satisfy graduate credit requirements. Dual-counted courses must be taken at the 400/500/600 level as an undergraduate. Only courses taken at SDSM&T are eligible for dual credit. No transferred courses will be allowed to count toward the accelerated master’s degree. 所属院系 进入哪个院系学习？ Department of Materials and Metallurgical Engineering 中国学生入学要求 为来自中国的学生设计 Applicants who have completed the equivalent of a four-year bachelor's degree at a recognized institution in any other country must have an academic record equivalent to a 2.70 grade point average (A = 4.00) on their last two years of study for admission to a master's degree program.
