Overview
Key features
The Sciences, Physics programme offered by the Lund University offers the whole three-year Bachelor’s programme in English, and since all of the courses on advanced level are given in English you are free to choose from a wide variety of courses. The courses join theory with laboratory exercises, giving you a good experience in performing and analysing experiments.
As a physicist you will have a broad education and a great range of tools for problem solving, tools which you can apply in almost any situation. These tools include great mathematical and programming skills. On completion of this Bachelor’s programme, students are eligible for a number of different Master’s programmes at Lund University and elsewhere.
The programme starts with a year of basic mathematics, physics and an introduction to science. The second year gives the tools for further studies in physics, through more mathematics, theoretical and modern physics.
The third year consists of more modern physics and elective courses, to gain a deeper and broader understanding in physics. In the last semester students choose elective courses and a Bachelor project. On completion of this Bachelor's programme, students are eligible for a number of different Master's programmes in Lund (and elsewhere).
