Master in Astrophysics, Elementary Particles and Computational Physics

This master's program is dedicated to the study of both General Relativity, Quantum Field Theory, and, in addition, the study of advanced computational methods. The courses studied at this program offer the opportunity for combining both analytical and computational skills of the students and help them to develop research careers in many areas of physics and closed-related domains

Student advantages

The students that attend the program could improve their knowledge of theoretical physics and computational physics and work further in the research activity. They could continue with a Ph.D. in various fields of physics from which we enumerate: quantum field theory, general relativity, statistical physics, solid state physics, computational physics, and mathematical physics. Also, the students will benefit from the expertise of various research groups that will offer them the opportunity to start research activities, scientific conferences and participate in research projects. This will help the students to make the first steps toward a career in physics. The program also offers the opportunity to visit other universities from abroad and to study there one semester or one year. Developing both analytical and computational skills the students could also work in other fields like IT industry, or side by side with the engineers in projects that aims to develop new products and techniques needed in various industries.
