Physics

How does nature work? And how can we use its concepts? By creating models and formulating natural laws, we learn to describe and predict the world around us. If this interests you, then the Bachelor's degree in Physics at the University of Groningen might be the right choice for you. ✔ Study fundamental topics like mechanics, electricity & magnetism, and quantum physics. ✔ Gain hands-on experience in labs and learn to translate complex theories into practical solutions. ✔ Deepen your knowledge by specialising in Biophysics & Medical Physics, Energy & Environmental Physics, Nanophysics, Particle Physics, or Physics education. During this international Bachelor's programme, you will explore the foundations of physics, a 'hard' science based on precise measurement, analytical thinking, and mathematical modelling. You will learn to describe and predict natural phenomena and gain skills highly valued by employers, from scientific research to industry consultancy. Whether your ambition lies in understanding quantum particles, improving medical technology, or tackling global energy challenges, Physics in Groningen prepares you for the future.
