About this programme

The international MSc in Photonics programme offered by the Abbe School of Photonics (ASP) is based on a long tradition of education in photonics at the Friedrich Schiller University Jena. Obtaining a Master's degree at ASP means to be immersed deeply in the rich and stimulating research environment of our Abbe Center of Photonics . Thus, our Master's degree students obtain hands-on experience while taking methodology courses that take place in state-of-the-art photonics laboratories.​ By choosing the respective elective modules, our students can already specialise in at least one out of five key education areas during their Master's degree studies. Our research and education partners include the local Fraunhofer Institute for Applied Optics and Precision Engineering, the Leibniz Institute of Photonic Technology, and the Helmholtz Institute Jena as well as a number of industrial partners like ASML, JENOPTIK, OSRAM, PHILIPS, SCHOTT, TRUMPF, and ZEISS. Video The MSc Photonics is part of a full-scale education programme of the Friedrich Schiller University Jena specialising in optics and photonics, starting at undergraduate level (BSc in Physics), continuing at Master's level, and culminating in a structured doctoral programme. The MSc Photonics course schedule commences its first semester with compulsory adjustment modules of fundamental lectures. The longer students follow the programme, the larger their freedom to choose from a great number of different subjects from the cata
