Are you drawn to the theoretical and mathematical perspectives on how our physical world is structured and how it functions? Here is the opportunity to study atomic physics, nuclear physics, nanophysics, solid-state physics, and particle physics from a theoretical standpoint.


During the Master’s programme you can examine several different approaches to matter and elementary particles as well as their inherent forces. You will also participate in dynamic research environments that are closely associated with two world-leading research facilities in Lund; the MAX IV Laboratory and the forthcoming neutron source ESS (European Spallation Source).


The programme provides strong proficiency in the fundamentals of theoretical physics and good opportunities to specialise in a research area of your interest and choice. The programme covers a broad spectrum of the areas found within theoretical and mathematical physics. Regardless of which area you choose, this education provides a stable foundation of theoretical knowledge for developing new models.


In theoretical particle physics, for example, you can decide to study the smallest constituents of matter and how these elementary particles interact with one another. You can also immerse yourself in applications of mathematical physics within the subject areas of nuclear physics and solid-state physics.


The education has strong links with research and the courses are continuously adapted to current research.
