The purpose of the exam is to demonstrate a comprehensive knowledge of  basic physics and to assess the student's analytic ability, creativity, and potential for successful completion of the Ph.D. program in Physics. The examinations will be administered in September 2017.  A skype interview can be arranged for  foreign students, (non-resident), wishing to apply to the selection process.
