About this programme

The primary goal of the Physics Master’s programme at LMU is to impart expertise in current research topics on the basis of a deeper physical understanding. Students are trained in research methods, strategic planning and critical evaluation of scientific results. The ability to think physically and to proceed methodically in both theory and practice is developed during the two-year course of study. The programme includes lectures, exercises, seminars, lab courses and research. Building on the knowledge gained in the first two semesters, these abilities are strengthened during the one-year research phase within the framework of the Master's thesis. Courses can be chosen from the following research areas: Astronomy and Astrophysics, Cosmology Biophysics, Molecular Biophysics, Statistical Physics Solid State Physics, Nanophysics Elementary Particle Physics Laser Optics and Quantum Optics Atmospheric Physics, Meteorology Medical Physics Theoretical and Mathematical Physics Artificial Intelligence in Physics Depending on the chosen courses, an additional certificate in Biophysics, Medical Physics, Astrophysics, Atmospheric Physics or Artificial Intelligence in Physics can be obtained. Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität (LMU) is a highly ranked university, one of the leading universities in Germany, and part of the German Universities Excellence Initiative, with a history of over 550 years. Several Nobel laureates, Leibniz prize winners, ERC grant holders and Humboldt professors have
