MSc Applied Physics
"After my BSc in Applied Physics I enrolled in the MSc. I was interested in nanoscience, the MSc was a logical choice since it has an outstanding reputation in that field."
Master of Science Applied Physics
Applied knowledge to meet society’s needs
Applied Physics covers phenomena ranging from the infinitesimally small – subatomic particles – to the unimaginably large – the universe. The Applied Physics Master’s Programme combines elements of a standard master’s programme in engineering with more theoretical courses.
Advancements in nanotechnology, medical imaging and more
You will not only explore the mechanisms and limits of the physical world, but also gain insights into how the application of advanced physics contributes to advancements in nanotechnology, seismic exploration, robotics, medical imaging, biophysics, communications technology and energy-efficient industrial processing.
Applied physics is all about translating a deep understanding of the theoretical underpinnings of physics into concrete results to benefit society.
What you will learn
In the programme you will gain knowledge and hands-on experience in experimental techniques, theoretical analysis, simulation and modelling. You will work on research projects, including a master’s thesis project, together with fellow students and professionals from the university, industry and research institutes, learning to translate the abstract into the practical, and to effectively communicate your insights as an applied physicist in a global context.
