- Description
- A doctoral degree in imaging science signifies high achievement in scholarship and independent investigation in the diverse aspects of imaging science, and with a Ph.D. from RIT, you will contribute to the fundamental body of knowledge in science and engineering that is associated with this field of study. The core curriculum consists of coursework and research and integrates a common body of knowledge essential to an understanding of imaging processes and applications. Courses are defined by your study plan and must include core course sequences plus a sequence in a topical area such as remote sensing, digital image processing, color imaging, digital graphics, electro-optical imaging systems, or microlithographic imaging technologies. You may take a limited number of credit hours in other departments and must complete research credits, including two credits of research associated with the Graduate Seminar. Elective courses allow you to concentrate your studies in a range of imaging science research and imaging application areas, including electro-optical imaging, digital image processing, color science, perception and vision, electrophotography, lithography, remote sensing, medical imaging, electronic printing, and machine vision.
