Program Description:
AFIT is primarily a graduate school for selected U.S. and foreign military officers, and for equivalent-rank Department of Defense (DOD) civilian personnel. For all AFIT programs, admission and selection of students are handled through appropriate USAF directives. There is no charge for tuition, since our students are granted a "scholarship" to attend AFIT through their respective services. This program is conducted by the Department of Engineering Physics and provides each student with a broad foundation in applied physics at the graduate level with specialization available in general applied physics,engineering physics, space environmental science, or nuclear engineering. Laboratory practice and computational methods are emphasized in all four specialization's through courses and research apprenticeships which are designed to probe minor research problems in a group environment.
