What is the objective of the course? What is it?
What does it train you for?

The Study Course has a 3-year duration (180 CFU) and provides a solid basic training in classical and modern physics. The training affords access to work activities that require a scientific method and the ability to use innovative methodologies and complex equipment. The student will acquire: ▶ the basics of physics (classical and modern); ▶ knowledge of the experimental scientific method; ▶ mathematical and IT tools; ▶ technological and laboratory skills; ▶ the ability to work in a team and independently, and to enter new work environments; ▶ the methods and knowledge required for the next training path (Master). It prepares students for the professions of Physicist, Astronomer and Astrophysicist, Researcher and technician.

What can you do with it?

The graduates typically continue in a Master Degree Course, but also enter the labuor market in public/private organizations and companies, research laboratories, banks, health companies, such as Agencies for the protection of Cultural Heritage and the Environment, Laboratories for the quality certification of industrial productions, Data processing and modelling centres, High-tech companies, Services relating to medical and health physics, Companies and industries in the microelectronics, IT and optoelectronics sectors. It is an admission requisite for the exams qualifying graduates for enrollment in the recently established register of chemists and physicists.
