Why choose Physics and Technology?
Physics and Technology combines the physicist’s understanding of the fundamental principles of nature with the engineer’s focus on developing new technological solutions. The programme addresses some of the major societal challenges within energy, climate, materials and sustainable technology.
On the Master’s programme, you specialise in the design, modelling, fabrication and analysis of functional materials. You learn to work with materials and technologies that can be used in everything from advanced sensor technology and medical diagnostics to food analysis and improved renewable energy sources.
With increasing focus on sustainable production, the circular economy and AI-based design methods, knowledge of advanced materials is becoming increasingly important. The programme gives you a strong profile in a field where fundamental physics and applied technology meet.
Physics and Technology is for you if you…
- are interested in materials, energy, sensors, modelling and sustainable solutions
- want to work with the design, fabrication and analysis of functional materials
- want to develop technologies for high-tech companies, research or the green transition
What will you learn?
On the programme, you build on a strong foundation in physics, technology and mathematics. You gain in-depth knowledge of materials science and technology and learn to work with materials modelling, simulation, advanced characterisation, reliability, processing and device fabrication.
You gain specialist skills in the design, modelling, fabrication and analysis of functional materials. You also learn to work with the measurement and analysis of signals, for example in the development of highly sensitive sensors combined with intelligent data processing.
The programme enables you to work across disciplines in a high-tech world, where solutions are often found at the intersection of physics, materials, data and engineering.
Teaching methods
You become part of a project-based and collaborative learning environment, where you work in project groups. You and your fellow students are responsible for planning and carrying out the projects.
The project briefs often come from companies, and the focus is on solving real-world problems. Teaching takes place in English in an international study environment in Sønderborg.
