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

The Course has the dual objective of completing and deepening the basic preparation in Physics and preparing Master's graduates for their entry into the world of work and research.

The Master's Degree Course in Physics in particular aims to provide students with the knowledge and ability to enter the world of research, knowledge that can later be further developed in PhD courses; the ability to promote and develop scientific and technological innovation, to manage technologies in areas related to physics disciplines in industry, the environment, health, cultural heritage and public administration.

What do you learn?

The Master's Degree Course in Physics is structured in compulsory courses, which aim to complete the basic physics preparation, and optional courses aimed at providing the Master's graduates with specific competences in one of the following fields of physics: astrophysics, biophysics, physics of materials, physics of complex systems, theoretical physics, particle physics.

The courses take place in the two semesters of the first year and in the first semester of the second year, as in the second semester of the second year the student prepares the Master's thesis, in which he/she deals with original research problems in one of the research groups of the Department of Physics and Chemistry or also at universities or research institutions abroad.
