In the track in Astronomy and Space Physics, you can study a broad range of topics from the physics of the Sun and solar system to stellar and galactic structure and evolution, as well as high energy astrophysics and cosmology.

The MSc in Astronomy was awarded the 'Top Rated Program' label (Higher Education Guide 2017), and our faculty is the home of the 2016 Nobel Prize Winner in Chemistry, Ben Feringa, and the Nobel Prize winner in Physics, Frits Zernike. We provide excellent facilities, in an international and vibrant research environment, and we make specialization on instrumentation and informatics possible. We also maintain close connections with ASTRON and SRON.

Explore the furthest reaches of the universe and immerse yourself in the study of exoplanets, star formation, radio astronomy, and much more. With access to world-class facilities including the Onsala Space observatory, the Astronomy profile within Physics is the perfect choice if you want to operate at the forefront of modern astrophysics. This master's program will give you extensive skills and knowledge, preparing you to take on exciting, demanding, and diverse challenges.

Leading experts train students in our Astronomy programme in cutting-edge astronomical research. We incorporate in our educational programme observations and data from the world’s foremost ground- and space-based telescopes as well as theoretical, computational and astrochemical modelling, large-scale simulations, and laboratory experiments that mimic conditions in space.

The objective of the Astronomy Master's Degree Program is to provide a comprehensive knowledge of astronomy including related interdisciplinary areas. Students will also acquire competencies in the wider field of scientific research, in the use of technical language, in teamwork and in the communication of scientific results, they will also develop an ability to resolve novel or unusual problems arising in a multidisciplinary context.

The Faculty comprises three institutes: the Institute of Experimental Physics, the Institute of Theoretical Physics, and the Institute of Astronomy. They carry out research in surface physics of solids, physics of nanomaterials, dielectric physics, nuclear physics, mathematical methods of physics, field theory, theory of elementary particles and fundamental interactions, non-linear systems, astrophysics, and solar physics.

The Master’s degree in Astrophysics and Cosmology aims to provide students with a comprehensive, up-to-date view of the main fields of modern Astrophysics, including astronomical detectors and techniques, black holes and neutron stars, cosmology, gravitational physics, planets, stars, and galaxies. Particular emphasis is placed on a solid background in Physics and the growing ties among Astrophysics and different branches of Physics in the coming era of multi-messenger observations.

Are you interested in the physics of black holes, cosmology, exoplanets, or supernovae? In this program, you will cover theoretical and observational approaches to modern astrophysics, and acquire skills and proficiency to analyze, evaluate and present complex data. This prepares you for a career in research or for qualified jobs in the industry.

Taking advantage of generations of terrestrial and space-based instruments, the Master of Astronomy and Astrophysics trains students to study the origin, structure, and evolution of planets, stars, star systems, and the universe itself.

Does your interest stretch from the infinitely small to the infinitely large? Choose between a minor in Research or Economy and Business, and get the chance to participate in high-level research. Experience small student groups which makes it possible to have close contact with the teaching staff.

The master's degree Astrophysics, Particle Physics and Cosmology of the University of Barcelona is intended for holders of bachelor's degrees and equivalent undergraduate degrees (particularly in physics), engineers and technical engineers who wish to pursue a specialization in one of the following branches of knowledge: astrophysics and space sciences; atomic, nuclear and particle physics; or gravitation and cosmology. The duration and specific content will depend on each applicant's previous studies.

The physicists and astronomers at Radboud University attract attention worldwide with spectacular discoveries - from the origin of cosmic particles to magnetism with light.

Explore astronomy and astrophysics at an advanced level, focusing on observational, theoretical or computational astronomy. This course is one of only three full-time, broad-based astronomy MSc courses in the UK. This course is for you if you graduated with a physics- or applied mathematics-based degree with a substantial physics component, and wish to learn how to apply your knowledge to astronomy.

The aim of the Department of Astronomy and Space Sciences Graduate Program is to educate modern scientists who are specialized in different subfields in the field of Astronomy and Space Sciences; can derive new information using his/her accumulations in the field of basic mathematics, physics and astronomy and space sciences; can create a new topic and field of study keeping abreast of current news in science end technology;

Develop technological education of excellence, build and share knowledge aimed at solving the real challenges of society.
