To be accepted into the masters programme in Physics, you need to complete a relevant bachelor programme.
The study of Physics deals with phenomena from the smallest elementary particles to cosmos. Between these extremes are atoms, molecules, compounds and liquids with a multitude of properties which physicists describe and utilise. Last, but not least, there is an important mediation aspect, both within and outside the various institutions of education.
Research
The Department of Physics and Chemistry at University of Southern Denmark focus their research on:
* Materials, environment and energy
* Theory, calculation and simulation
* Synthesis and pharmaceutical science
* Living technology and biophysics
Here, research is cutting-edge and you get to be present where research is developed.
Focus your education
You combine this programme with a research profile which allows you to specialise in a specific scientific area.
In the masters programme in Physics, you work with a range of advanced subjects and your thesis.
Already in the first year of the programme (fourth year of study), you get the posibility to focus on the type of career and area of physics which you are most interested in, such as:
* Surface physics
* Statistical physics
* Biophysics
* High energy physics
Through working on your thesis, you have the opportunity to contribute new knowledge. One or more of the department employees will supervise you and you will also have the opportunity to develop your thesis in collaoration with outside researchers.
Research degree
The masters programme in Physics can be built upon through a research degree, the PhD. The 3-year PhD programme is centered around a research project and along the way you also take advanced courses and teach younger students.
Research in the Department of Physics and Chemistry
The department values the fundamental scientific research in a broad range of subjects from Physics and Chemistry to related disciplines like Biophysics and Nano-bioscience. Theory, computer calculations and experiments are brought into play to create new results and techniques to benefit both science and technique.
The Department of Physics and Chemistry has four core research fields:
* Materials, environment and energy
* Theory, calculation and simulation
* Synthesis and pharmaceutical science
* Living technology and biophysics
The department is among the best in the world in research of modified DNA as well as research in the physcis of biomembranes which help us deliver medicine aimed at infected cells in the body. The Department of Physics and Chemistry also holds several of Europes key assets in work with chemical and physical methods of emulating fundamental processes of life.
Physics with a research profile
In the masters programme in Physics with a research profile, you get the opportunity to immerse yourself in current issues and complete your own research projects. The programme will provide you with a good basis for handling complex problems which are relevant in many different careers.
Graduates who have completed this master programme are entitled to use the title of Master of Science (MSc) in Physics.
A complete study environment
As a student at University of Southern Denmark, you become part of a study environment we call Living Science. Your day will be characterised by great academic value and you can look forward to meeting your fellow students as well as researchers from a wide variety of fields. But a university programme is much more than courses, classes and lectures. Good friends, a solid network and a living study environment are all part of creating a connection between the academic and social spheres.
Programme structure
In the field of Physics, the Department of Physics and Chemistry offers a full degree two-year programme for international students, the MSc in Physics research profile.
The programme is strongly oriented towards theoretical and experimental Physics and enables you to excel in your preferred area of expertise.
All courses in the programme are taught and examined in English.
PhD programme
If your desire and abilities suffice, you can choose to apply for a research degree. This can be either as a 3-year programme following the masters programme or as a 4-year programme beginning a year after the bachelor programme. The research programme leads to a PhD in science.
