You will find the faculty, facilities and financial support to help you achieve your goals. The subject matter of physics, distinguished from that of chemistry and biology, includes mechanics, heat, light and other radiation, sound, electricity, magnetism, and the structure of atoms. Physicists use mathematics and numerical analysis and statistics and probability and computer software in their work. We offer a solid foundation in physics that includes course work in a diverse range of specializations covering every facet of contemporary physics research.

Gain advanced knowledge of modern physics with this master's degree program from Linnaeus University. Graduates of this program may pursue analytical roles in science and technology along with postgraduate studies. Students will work closely with teachers and scientists involved in research projects, to develop their independent research skills and knowledge of concepts and models in physics.

The curriculum consists of a dissertation that incorporates a research proposal to be completed within the first year of study

In our graduate physics program, you’ll gain a comprehensive understanding and mastery of both theoretical and experimental physics. You’ll delve deeply into quantum mechanics, quantum field theory, and string theory while unraveling the complexities of general relativity and cosmology. Your journey will extend to investigating the enigmatic phenomena of black holes, dark matter, and dark energy.

The program of study leading to the degree of Master of Science, while emphasizing continued work in basic physics, permits many options in several applied physics specialties.

The Master of Science program in Applied Physics is an interdisciplinary program that offers students the opportunity to complete graduate studies in physics with a particular emphasis on applied research and technology development for industry. The program is a formally recognized Professional Science Master's degree program, meaning that in addition to science courses, students are also required to take courses in management.
