Overview

Photonics is constantly growing and presently covers a large range of interdisciplinary activities in the sectors of health, environment, energy, Transport, and telecommunications with either medium-term or long term social and economic outcomes. Photonics plays a key role in the discovery of new processes in nature and novel technologies, its influence on fundamental knowledge developments and also on market novelties are undeniable.

What you'll learn

The Erasmus Mundus Europhotonics Joint Master Degree (EMJMD) at Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (KIT) started in 2010 is a two years Master program focusing on advanced research and applied topics that will constitute the near and extended future scientific goals in the field of Photonics, with interdisciplinary applications.

Master students benefiting from this program will be able to work on today’s new challenges in their academic or applied research careers: understand and control matter and optical phenomena at the nanometric scale, provide new imaging and monitoring tools for complex biological processes from cells and tissues to clinical applications, bring new and original tools for future optical devices. After being graduated, the Europhotonics students obtain positions in industries, in research laboratories, in universities worldwide.
