Education on Experimental Physics
Advanced courses, study period 1
The course aims to provide an insight into how modern computational methods for nanomaterials and their underlying physics, as well as their implementation. You will learn how and when these methods are applied through hands-on labs and group projects. In addition, you will learn how computational physics fits into current research in materials and product development.

Advanced courses, study period 2
The course provides an overview of nonlinear physics, including chaos. ALL systems are in fact nonlinear. The use of pre-programmed Maple notebooks allows us to cover a much wider range of phenomena than would otherwise be possible.

The course deals with nanostructured materials and phenomena that arise when the length scale of the constituent parts is in the nano range. Great emphasis will be placed on the understanding of interfacial phenomena since nanostructured materials contain a large number of interfaces.

Advanced courses
Reading period 1 and 3
The aim of the course is to provide an opportunity for in-depth study in physics, especially physics with experimental elements, which are not included in the regular course offerings. This is done by studying books or scientific articles, possibly supplemented by own experiments, experimental setups and measurement methods. The course will also further develop the student's presentation skills and provide an introduction to research in physics.

Reading period 2 and 4
The purpose of the course is to provide an opportunity for specialization in physics that is not included in the regular course offerings. Students also develop their ability to model and solve problems in physics.
