Description

This MSc programme centres around physics as the basis of modern technology. The programme covers a wide range of technological, theoretical, and experimental techniques and includes topics such as the development of nanostructured materials with tailor-made electrical, magnetic, optical, mechanical and chemical properties; manufacturing and integration of nano- and micro components in systems design; modelling of complex biological systems; optical data processing and transfer; and the development of technologies for sourcing, storing, and converting sustainable energy—– e.g. fuel cells and hydrogen technology.

Study lines:
  • Atomic-scale Physics
  • Biophysics and Complex Systems
  • Nanosystems Engineering
  • Optics and Photonics
  • Physics and Nanotechnology for Sustainability and Energy
Students enrolled in the programme are not limited to one of these subject areas, but are able to combine topics.

Career Opportunities 

Advanced physics skills are applicable to a broad spectrum of areas, but graduates work primarily in the field of research and development in private and public companies.

Description

DTU’s main campus consists of more than 100 buildings on a 106-hectare plain, which is divided into four quadrants—just like points in a coordinate system. The campus is safe and secure, and a site of great natural beauty with wooded areas, sports fields, inner courtyards, and gardens.  

The campus is located within the Greater Copenhagen Area and is easily accessed by car or public transport. You can get from DTU to Copenhagen Center in about 40 minutes by bus or trian, 45 minutes by bike and 20 minutes by car.

Most of the DTU main campus was build in the 1960s and 1970s, but new and modern facilities have been build continuously. DTU is currently investing more than 500,000,000 EUR in a comprehensive transformation of the university buildings and infrastructure, which is aimed at providing world-class research and student facilities.
