About this programme

The MSc in Physics is part of a full-scale higher education programme of the Friedrich Schiller University Jena, starting at undergraduate level (BSc in Physics), continuing at Master's level, and culminating in a structured doctoral programme. The four-semester Master's programme consists of a lecture phase and a one-year research phase. The lecture phase contains: the physical core courses (quantum field theory, laser physics, quantum optics, research lab work, general relativity, stellar physics, celestial mechanics, solid-state theory, experimental solid-state physics) a wide range of elective courses The student specialises in one of the following fields of research: optics/photonics: laser physics, plasma physics, image processing, non-linear optics, quantum optics, biophotonics, lens design, optical modelling, fibre optics, ultrafast optics, nanooptics, instrumentation gravitational and quantum theory: general relativity, quantum field theory and string theory, as well as more specialised courses on relativistic astrophysics, numerical relativity, gravitational waves, computational physics, physics of the quantum vacuum, supersymmetry, atomic theory, cosmology, quantum information theory solid state physics/material science: superconductivity, nuclear solid state physics, solid state optics, optoelectronics, semiconductors, electronic structure theory, polymer physics, material science astronomy/astrophysics: stellar physics, celestial mechanics, laboratory astrophysic
