Does a concentration matter?

Usually, but they may have to get the department head (or someone else) to review your transcript. There's also a chance they would only offer you conditional admission. It can depend on the competitiveness of the school.

Yes, but sometimes you may get overlooked if your major wasn't physics/engineering. You would definitely need to point out on your resume that you did extensive coursework in the subject area(s).
