Choosing a Great Physics School for Your Master's Degree

Your choice of physics for getting your master's degree school matters. Important measures of a quality physics program can vary widely even among the top schools. To make it into this list, a school must excel in the following areas.

A Great Overall School

A school that excels in educating for a particular major and degree level must be a great school overall as well. To make it into this list a school must rank well in our overall Best Colleges for a Master's Degree ranking. This ranking considered factors such as graduation rates, overall graduate earnings and other educational resources to identify great colleges and universities.

Early-Career Earnings

One measure we use to determine the quality of a school is to look at the average salary of master's graduates during the early years of their career. That is, everyone wants their master's degree to be worth something, and salaries are one measure of determining that.

Other Factors We Consider

In addition to the above, you should consider some of the following factors:

• Major Focus - How many resources a school devotes to physics students as compared to other majors.
• Major Demand - How many other physics students want to attend this school to pursue a master's degree.
• Educational Resources - The amount of money and other resources allocated to students while they are pursuing their degree. These resources include such things as number of students per instructor and education expenditures per student.
• Student Debt - How easy is it for physics to pay back their student loans after receiving their master's degree.
• Accreditation - Whether a school is regionally accredited and/or accredited by a recognized physics related body.

Our full ranking methodology documents in more detail how we consider these factors to identify the best colleges for physics students working on their master's degree.

Insufficient Data for Indiana

On account of absent data, we were not able to show you the physics quality ranking. This is typically due to there not being enough schools in Indiana that both offer physics and provided enough information for us to do a detailed analysis.
