Annotation

In the Physics degree programme, students explore fascinating questions such as: What is matter made of? How do black holes form? How many universes are there? The aim is to acquire the ability to independently classify physics problems and, in some cases, interdisciplinary problems that require a goal-oriented and logically sound approach on the basis of scientific findings, and to analyse or solve them through the use of scientific and mathematical methods. In addition, students learn to pass on these scientific fundamentals to school students using subject-specific didactic methods.
