Illinois Tech is an excellent choice for graduate study in physics as the department is small, collegial, and collaborative. Research is organized into small groups of faculty members, postdoctoral associates, graduate students, and undergraduate students working closely on related projects. Classes are generally small and informal, and thesis research is carried out in close collaboration with the faculty adviser.

Unibroad also offers a Pre-Master's program for the candidates not eligible for this course. There is special Unibroad scholarship offered at this university.
