The Physics and Technology master programme in Optics, Sensors and Nanotechnology is aimed at students who want to create the products and technologies of the future – as researchers or developers.
Academic profile in Optics, Sensors and Nanotechnology
Graduates with an academic profile in Optics, Sensors and Nanotechnology have acquired specialist competencies in a wide area, with the primary focus being the interaction between light and materials, nanophysics, sensors, nanotechnology, molecular physics and spectroscopy. Among other things, graduates will be qualified to solve fundamental problems in optics and apply them in the development of measuring systems with sensors based on nanotechnology. Read more about the academic profile in Optics, Sensors and Nanotechnology.
Project based and research based study environment
You become part of a project based and problem based study environment where you work in project groups. You and your fellow students are responsible for planning and carrying out the project – and for meeting the deadlines. Usually we receive the project outlines from companies and we emphasise that the problems you solve are ‘real world’ problems. Learn more from the students themselves.
Many different career options
With a degree in Physics and Technology you will have a range of job opportunities – in Denmark and abroad. Among other things, you could work as a researcher or developer in the optics, sensor technology or material design industry or at universities.
It is also possible to continue on a three-year research programme which will lead to a PhD degree. Another option is to study an industrial research programme which is carried out in close cooperation with a company where you are employed.
Graduates who have completed this master programme are entitled to use the title of Master of Science (MSc) in Engineering (Physics and Technology).
