Program:

leading discipline: physical sciences teaching in English choice of specializations: Theoretical Physics, Computer Modeling of Physical Phenomena, Physics of Condensed Matter and Semiconductor Nanostructures, Geophysics, Optics selection of specialization at the end of the first semester selected specialization training starts from the second semester physics training based on world-class research carried out at the Faculty of Physics, University of Warsaw training based on an individual plan of studies prepared by the student according to their interests and advised by the specialization coordinator many laboratory classes available access to computer laboratories and libraries access to Makerspace@UW for carrying out students’ own project and prototypes opportunity to join research groups at the Faculty of Physics work placement included in the curriculum classes at the Faculty of Physics (ul. Pasteura 5)   Description of specializations:   Physics of Condensed Matter and Semiconductor Nanostructures: The goal of the program consists is training professionals in experimental studies and interpretation of physical phenomena in semiconductors, semiconductor structures and other systems based of condensed matter; graduates also understand physical foundations of devices based on these materials. They are trained in experimental research, chracterization of materials, data analysis and interpretation based on knowledge about quantum structure of matter; they are also trained in technology and applications of semiconductors and semiconductor nanostructures.

 

Profile of the graduate

Graduates are prepared to research and design in research institutions, R&D centers and high-tech industry.   Theoretical Physics: The goal of the program consists in training theoretical physicists well prepared to conduct their own research or to collaborate with experimental physicists, both in academic and R&D settings.

 

Profile of the graduate

Graduates have general knowledge about physics and selected topics in mathematics, as well as thorough knowledge in one selected topic in theoretical physics. Graduates are trained to formulate, assess critically and solve problems in advanced physics. These qualifications are appropriate for employment in research institutions, R&D laboratories, consulting complanies, insurance companies, banks and other financial institutions.   Geophysics : Modeling and monitoring of weather and climate, transport of pollution, studies of Earth, other planets and outer space are important for the economy, the society and the understanding of nature. Students are trained in atmospheric physics, Earth and planetary physics or environmental physics. Atmospheric physis includes: physical foundations of weather and climate, basics of dynamical meteorology, atmospheric thermodynamics, radiation transfer in the atmosphere, atmospheric turbulences, measurement techniques and basics of numerical modeling. Environmental physics includes: combustion theory, transport theory, aerodynamics and hydrodynamics of renewable energy, magnetohydrodynamics of the outer space, numerical simulations and statistical approach to complex systems. Earth and planetary physics focuses on physical processes regarding planets and the outer space, geophysical measurements and computer simulations.

 

Profile of the graduate

Graduates are well trained to work in meteorological services and other units monitoring and modeling the atmosphere, Earth or environment, including research institutions.

 

Computer Modeling of Physical Phenomena : Studies focus on modeling of physical processes in all branches of physics present at the Faculty of Physics, University of Warsaw. Students gain experience in modern approach to studying nature by performing state-of-the art numerical simulations of physical phenomena. MSc theses can be advised by any academic teacher employing numerical simulations in her/his research.

Optics: The goal of the program consists in training in modern optics, understood as photonics together with atomic and molecular physics. Subjects include physics of atoms and molecules, laser spectroscopy, laser physics, non-linear optics and quantum information. The training is aimed at applications of optics in various aspects of science and technology. In particular, photonics belongs to fastest-growing branches of technology, hence appropriately trained specialists are in high demand on the job market.

 

Profile of the graduate

Graduates can use advanced optical and electronic equipment, and they understand physical foundations of the hardware, so they can design and prepare their own optical systems. They can employ a wide variety of experimental techniques and analyze data, as well as describe observed phenomena, thanks to theoretical background. With this training, the graduates are higly employable in research institutions, schools and technological companies active in designing and producing photonic equipment.
