Key Facts

After the introductory courses in general physics, you can choose to specialise in subjects such as:

• Theoretical physics

• Condensed matter physics

•  Quantum computing

• Nanoscience

The program concludes with a thesis project, where you can choose between the durations of 20, 30 or 40 weeks. The thesis is project is carried out in collaboration with the physics research group in Kalmar.

During your studies you will work closely with instructors on ongoing research projects actively pursued in the department and receive guidance from experienced teachers and researchers. We also offer a student exchange agreement with the University of Insubria in Como, Italy, where you can take equivalent courses and receive a double degree – one from Linnaeus University and one from the University of Insubria. This collaboration provides access to a wider range of physics courses and research areas that complement those that are available at Linnaeus University.

The physics master programme equips you with the knowledge and skills to meet the needs of both society and the academic world. You can choose to study on campus in Kalmar or complete the entire program remotely.
