USPAS-Affiliated University Credits

Indiana University

In addition to the IU/USPAS master's degree program students, "regular" students currently enrolled at Indiana University may earn IU credit for their USPAS course. Please contact the USPAS for more details.

Massachusetts Institute of Technology

Students currently enrolled at MIT may earn MIT credit for their USPAS course. Please contact the USPAS for more details.

Michigan State University

Students currently enrolled at MSU may earn MSU credit for their USPAS course. MSU also offers an interactive Master's and Ph.D. program in Beam Physics through its Virtual University. Students participate in video-conference courses and work on interactive, web-based homework problems. A combination of VUBeam courses, courses offered by the US Particle Accelerator School, courses taken in residence at MSU, transferred credit, and thesis work, allow to earn a Master's or Ph.D. Degree in Physics. Thesis work can be performed within research groups at many accelerator laboratories under the supervision of a local scientist.
