Master's Programme in Physics - Meteorology and Climate Physics

The Master's Programme in Physics offers seven specialisations. Its flexible structure allows you to tailor your degree by combining courses to suit your interests—whether you want to broaden your expertise or specialise in a specific area. The tutors are active researchers and the courses are linked to the frontline of physics research. The specialisations offered are: - Astronomy and Space Physics - Physics for Sustainable Energy and Complex Systems - Geophysics - Nuclear and Particle Physics - Mathematical Physics - Meteorology and Climate Physics - Theoretical Physics – Quantum Fields and String Theory The specialisation Meteorology and Climate Physics positions you at the intersection of physics and Earth sciences. You will study atmospheric dynamics, weather systems, and climate modelling. Course content ranges from turbulent flows to radiative balance and satellite data analysis. Research is closely linked to environmental agencies and observational data—ideal preparation for addressing climate challenges. During the first three semesters, you choose from a wide range of advanced physics courses, allowing you to focus on a particular field. You may also take courses in related disciplines to shape a customised academic profile. The programme concludes with a degree project, where you conduct individual research project in collaboration with a research group at the university, in industry, or at a governmental agency. The language of instruction is English
