This flexible degree option offers students the option of completing graduate-level optics classes off-campus at their home or business and then completing a short residency requirement at the world-renowned Optical Sciences Center at the University of Arizona. The goal of the Master of Science in Optical Sciences program -- both for distance learning students and resident students -- is to prepare students to enter exciting and challenging careers in industry or to continue their education in the PhD program. Graduates of the Master's program are typically employed as engineers, designers and technical managers. They work in optical design and engineering, hardware design, medical and biomedical technology, lasers and electro-optical systems, fiber optics and communications, electronics, measurements, manufacturing and technology for consumer products. Their opportunities are varied, exciting and critical to all high-tech fields
