History : Physics Division of Manisa Celal Bayar University Graduate School of Natural and Applied Sciences initiated its MSc teaching and academic activities at the fall semester of 1993-1994 academic year, following its foundation depending upon the enactment of the statutory decree no.41 accepted on July the 20th. 1982. Physics Division has been continued education and research activities in Nuclear Physics, Atomic and Moleculer Physics, Solid State Physics, High Energy and Plasma Physics and General Physics Programmes.
Qualification Awarded : Master’s Degree in Physics (second cycle in Physics) is awarded to the graduates who have successfully fulfilled all programme requirements.
Level of Qualification (Short Cycle , First Cycle , Second Cycle, Third Cycle) : Second Cycle
Specific Admission Requirements : Candidates must have a Bachelor of Science’s diploma and a score of not less than 55 points in the applied program from the Academic Postgraduate Education Entrance Exam (ALES) to apply to the Master of Science program. Candidates must have at least 40 points from the Public Personnel Foreign Language Proficiency Examination (YDS) or the exam centrally organized by the Manisa Celal Bayar University Foreign Language Department or an equivalent scores from any of the foreign language exam accepted by the University Council. The above requirement is not required for the candidates who apply to the programs for which preparatory class is obligated or who succeed in the preparatory class in the undergraduate education. Achievement score in Master of Science programs is at less 65 points. Achievement score is the sum of the 50% of the ALES exam, 30% of the Bachelor of Science diploma score and 20% of interview. The score of candidates who do not enter interview are not calculated.
Candidates who have a point of 65 or higher achievement score are listed according to their scores starting from the highest in Master of Science programs. Candidates in the quote receive a definitive registration right in the applied program.

Specific Arrangements For Recognition Of Prior Learning (Formal, Non-Formal and Informal) : Students enrolled to the Master of Science program may request exemption from the courses they have achieved in the equivalent programs at any of the other higher education institution. For the exemption from the courses they have achieved prior, they should submit their transcript and course contents to the relevant department within the next week of enrollment week.
Qualification Requirements and Regulations : To complete the Master of Science programs successfully, students must join at less eight courses in condition totally not less than twenty four national credits and a seminar and successful at preparation of thesis study; and complete at less 60 ECTS credits in an education-training year, totally 120 ECTS credits including seminar course and thesis study in a maximum six semesters.
Profile of The Programme : We are running to to perform a unique and internationally recognized scientific studies in the physics science and it's all kinds of technological applications, in collaboration with researchers working in other disciplines. Also we aducate qualified scientists in the physics dicipline. Our computer-assisted modern laboratories are placed in the department for a high level of education.
Occupational Profiles of Graduates With Examples : Physicists with MSc can work in research development and/or quality control departments of private or public institutions. Also physicists have opportunity to work in scientific research centers and radiotherapy departments in hospitals
Access to Further Studies : Graduates who successfully completed the Master's Degree may apply to doctorate (third cycle) programmes in the same or in related disciplines
Examination Regulations, Assessment and Grading : Exams are composed of mid-term, final and make-up exams. Other than exams, quiz, project, homework and other activates that the lecturer may consider appropriate can be applied. The number of these activities and the contribution to the achievement score are stated in the course plan by the lecturer.
