Course description

In this study program, students gain advanced knowledge in both experimental and theoretical Physics. The M.Sc. Physics curriculum includes a few compulsory modules but primarily allows students to specialize in one of four areas: Optics & Photonics, Gravitation & Quantum Theory, Astronomy & Astrophysics, or Solid-State Physics and Material Science. The master’s thesis will focus on the chosen area of specialization. Numerous partnerships with external institutions provide a wide range of topics and foster strong connections with local and regional industries. To ensure a comprehensive education, students will also take several modules outside their specialization. This approach guarantees a well-rounded qualification, preparing graduates for diverse career opportunities.
