Mandatory courses and primary electives
You will typically follow courses in the first year, constituting lectures and problem-class sessions. The programme is built around three specialised tracks, each focusing on a different area of experimental physics. You will select one track, which determines the main focus of your programme. Most of your courses will be associated with this track but you will complement these with courses from another track to broaden your knowledge.
Research Project
You will do a large Research Project in your second year, and a small course that teaches you the foundations of open science. As a part of your research training, you will do a literature study to familiarize yourself with the subject and enhance your academic skills by regularly attending various seminars. The project concludes with a written thesis and an oral presentation.
Secondary electives
The secondary electives are meant to broaden your interests and skills.
Extra opportunities
Want to go abroad for part of your programme?
If you want to go abroad, it's important to let your programme coordinator know in advance. The curriculum is generally very packed, so it requires timely planning. If you have a general idea of what you want to do, please first discuss it with your programme coordinator to see if it fits into your programme.
