Program Description

Programme overview

Our world is facing many challenges – in basic science when exploring fundamental forces and particles or the origin of the universe, planets and life – and in applied science to find sustainable energy sources, new technology on the nanoscale and tailor-made materials for industry, chemistry and medicine. Physics is the basis for this endeavour and physicists play an important role in these and many other fields.

We offer the whole three-year Bachelor’s programme in English, and since all of the courses on the advanced level are given in English you are free to choose from a wide variety of courses. The courses join theory with laboratory exercises, giving you a good experience in performing and analysing experiments.

As a physicist, you will have a broad education and a great range of tools for problem solving, tools which you can apply in almost any situation. These tools include great mathematical and programming skills.

On completion of this Bachelor’s programme, students are eligible for a number of different Master’s programmes at Lund University and elsewhere.
