    About

    The first three semesters are dedicated to completion of the foundation stage. First of all, students deal with mathematical foundations and introductory courses in Experimental Physics and Theoretical Physics. In the subsequent semesters, this content is supplemented by topics such as the theory of relativity, atomic physics and quantum physics. Students then expand on the foundation stage in their chosen area of specialisation. Students explore the material in groups and then complete problem sheets and tests on the lectures together. Most examinations are oral examinations in which content from several modules is examined. As a consequence, students need only take a few examinations, reducing the examination load. From the third semester onwards, students take a so-called compulsory elective subject, worth 16 credit points, enabling them to gain an insight into the tasks and working practices of another subject. Standard subjects include Business Administration, Computer Science, Mathematics and Philosophy. However, other subjects are also possible, depending on the students individual timetable. The Bachelors thesis, written at the end of the programme, should demonstrate that students are able to scientifically tackle a problem from the field of physics.

    The main reason for studying physics ought to be a love of the subject. After the first lecture, students soon realise that physics at university level is a different matter to school physics: the degree programme involves logical thinking and a precise method of working. Other necessary skills are the perseverance and patience required to complete weekly problem sheets. In addition, creativity and capacity for teamwork are also very useful.

    Career

    The aim of the Bachelors degree programme in Physics is to enable graduates to work in research or private sector companies.

    Conceivable career options can be found in companies that offer in-house development programmes (e.g. special trainee programmes) for career entrants with a sound basic knowledge of physics. In addition, companies have a demand for employees who particularly possess analytical skills and the power of abstraction, e.g. in areas such as marketing and sales or project management.

    How to Apply

    You can use our online application portal to enrol any time between 1 June and 30 September. To be able to do this, you will need a qualification for admission to higher education. At the end of the online application, you will automatically be forwarded to a cover letter (the so-called application for enrollment). Sign this application for enrollment (handwritten or digital) and put it together with the required documents into one PDF document, which you can then upload using the upload link provided. The required documents include your qualification for admission to higher education (e.g. Abitur) and any other supporting documents such as practical training certificates or evidence of language proficiency. We also need proof of your health insurance and evidence that you have paid the semester fee. At the end of the online application, all required documents are listed and must be uploaded as a scan of the original documents by September 30th, 11:59 p.m. Please do not forget to upload your photo for the LeibnizCard . You can find information on this in the application for enrollment at the end of the online application. In September, you will receive your enrolment documents, an invitation to the welcome event for new students and information about any preparatory courses that may be offered. Please note that some degree programmes offer preparatory courses well before term starts.
