About the Program

The Bachelor's program in Physics provides theoretical and practical foundations of classical and modern physics and its mathematical-scientific neighboring disciplines. Students gain the ability to apply acquired knowledge and skills to fulfill professional tasks in the field of physics and to handle the acquired knowledge critically and responsibly. The program is fundamentals and research-oriented and forms the basis for a consecutive Master's program in Physics or another (mathematical) scientific discipline. The curriculum includes classical physics (mechanics, heat, electromagnetism, optics), quantum physics, molecular and solid-state physics, thermodynamics and statistics, and modern atomic physics. Students also receive training in numerical physics (computational physics) and physical measurement technology. The program is structured to cover physics topics through a combination of experimental physics and theoretical physics, supported by practical laboratory work in all subject areas. The Bachelor's thesis concludes the studies.
