Description:

Studying physics at Chalmers begins with advanced courses in the core principles of the field as it looks today. You will dive into essential theoretical, computational, and experimental physics, building a strong foundation before specialising further in a number of different areas.

These include astrophysics, quantum technology, materials science, nuclear technology, and computational physics. Whether your interests lie in understanding the origins of the universe, developing new quantum devices, or investigating questions of nuclear safety and radiation, you will be able to tailor the programme according to your own interests. either by following a preset specialisation, or through your own selection of elective courses.
