About this programme

The Master's programme covers some of the most rapidly expanding fields in physics and material sciences, dealing with the control, manipulation, and monitoring of light and its interaction with matter. It aims at providing an extensive, two-year programme from fundamentals to advanced research topics in photonics and its interdisciplinary applications. Master's students benefiting from this programme will be able to work on today's new challenges in their academic or applied research careers: understanding and controlling matter and optical phenomena at the ultimate nanometric scale, providing new imaging tools for the most complex biological processes from cells and tissues to clinical applications, and bringing original tools into line with future optical devices. This two-year Master's programme (120 ECTS credits) is organised by five groups of institutions: Paul Cézanne Aix-Marseille III University (France), Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) / Karlsruhe School of Optics & Photonics (Germany), Universitat Politecnica de Catalunya / Universitat Autonoma de Barcelona / University of Barcelona / ICFO (Institute of Photonic Sciences) (Spain), Tampere University of Technology (Finland), and Vilnius University (Lithuania). These institutions are recognised for their high-quality training and research centres in the field of optics and photonics and their applications, with the unique opportunity to benefit from the presence of excellent and interdisciplinary research inst
