Program Overview
The Bachelor's degree programme in physics builds upon a robust basic knowledge of mathematics and fosters abstract thinking as well as analytical and problem-solving skills. It provides solid foundations that allow physics graduates to acquire further knowledge independently in their chosen profession. Physics graduates may be found carrying out scientific research in state-owned or industrial laboratories, but their broad skillset and their versatility are highly valued in many other professional roles.
