One of the following six specializations can be chosen for the Master in Physics:
Quantum Sciences:
Quantum sciences comprise modern topics based on recent breakthroughs in quantum physics and represent a major research area in the 21st century.
Quantum Engineering:
Quantum engineering exploits the features of quantum physics to generate technical solutions surpassing the capabilities of classical technologies.
Ion- and Applied Physics:
Ion Physics and Applied Physics focuses on atomic, molecular, and cluster ions in the gas phase and their applications in atmospheric physics and chemistry, chemical analytics and molecular spectroscopy.
Many-Body Physics:
Many-body theory aims at the description of collective phenomena of a large number of interacting particles combining methods of statistical physics, condensed matter physics, and complex systems.
Computational Physics:
The Master’s program branch on Computational Physics provides students with the methodology to handle physical problems that are preferably approached using numerical methods.
Astro- and Particle Physics:
Astro- and particle physics aim at an understanding of physics at the largest and smallest scales. In this branch of the Master's program we address the physics of the cosmos and its constituents, ranging from (exo-)planets, stars, the interstellar medium, galaxies to the large-scale structure.
