Bachelor German Mathematics & Natural Sciences

Physics

Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.)

About the Program

Physicists study the smallest elementary particles as well as the vastness of the cosmos. Physics attempts to understand nature, describe it with mathematical models and make predictions about its behavior. Basically, physics is divided into experimental physics and theoretical physics. Its findings are used by the engineering sciences, for example, to develop technical devices and solutions for the major challenges facing our society. The content of the Bachelor's degree course is based on the physics subject classification system. These include mechanics, electro- and thermodynamics, atomic and molecular physics, nuclear and elementary particle physics, laboratory astrophysics and quantum mechanics. At the same time, students acquire the mathematical skills that are essential for dealing with physics. A good command of English makes it easier to deal with specialist literature.
