Explore the Physics, Master Programme program at Linnaeus University. This program is offered in SWE and provides an excellent learning opportunity in Masters studies.

The Physics Master Programme at Linnaeus University is designed for students aiming to deepen their understanding of physics and prepare for advanced studies or careers in research and industry. The program spans two years and consists of 120 credits, beginning with a semester of general courses followed by 4-6 elective courses. Students can choose from topics such as theoretical physics, condensed matter physics, and quantum computation. The program culminates in a Master thesis project, which can be conducted within the physics research group in Kalmar. The courses are delivered through distance learning, allowing for flexibility and interaction via video conferencing. This program not only equips students with essential skills in mathematics and computational physics but also offers opportunities for collaboration with the University of Insubria in Italy, potentially leading to a double Master degree. Graduates are well-prepared for Ph.D. studies or careers in various physics-related fields.
