MS Imaging Science Concentrations

You may choose to complete either a research thesis or a project and a paper in the non-thesis option. A research thesis is based on original experimental or theoretical work. Faculty supervise your research in an area of their specialization. You may also perform your thesis research at your place of employment. In the non-thesis option, you complete a project and submit a paper at the conclusion of the program.

You may concentrate on one of six "system tracks" listed below, or customize your own track.

Color Imaging emphasizes cross-media color reproduction.

Digital Image Processing studies 2D image processing computer techniques.

Medical Imaging provides an understanding of imaging technologies such as ultrasonic and magnetic resonance imaging.

Nanoimaging uses imaging at the nanometer level to characterize materials and studies prototype imaging devices based on nanomaterials.

Electro-optical Imaging Systems provides you with an understanding of geometrical and physical properties of imaging systems.

Remote Sensing places emphasis on aerial and satellite systems.
