Program Overview

Introduction to the Master's Program in Optics

The Master's program in Optics was first introduced in 2007. The program has a faculty consisting of 4 professors, several associate professors, and lecturers with doctoral degrees. Many of the professors have doctoral supervisor qualifications and hold academic positions such as directors of national first- and second-level associations, members of professional committees, and reviewers for domestic and international authoritative journals.

Research and Achievements

In the past three years, the program has undertaken numerous national and municipal projects, including National Natural Science Foundation projects, National Key R&D Projects, Shanghai Municipal Science and Technology Commission projects, and Shanghai Municipal Education Commission projects. The program has also completed several technological research and development projects commissioned by enterprises. Faculty members have published over 200 papers in domestic and international authoritative journals, including more than 100 papers indexed by Sci. Additionally, they have published three monographs and textbooks and applied for and obtained multiple invention patents and utility model patents.

Program Overview
