Physics and astronomy

Explore the World of Astrophysics

Astrophysics is one of the most dynamic and rapidly evolving scientific fields, bridging physics and astronomy to uncover the mysteries of the universe. The Astrophysics programme provides students with a deep understanding of celestial phenomena while equipping them with advanced analytical and computational skills. With a focus on both theoretical concepts and hands-on experience, this programme prepares graduates for cutting-edge research and diverse career opportunities in academia, technology, and industry.

Programme Overview

The curriculum combines mandatory core programmes with a range of elective options to tailor the learning experience. Students gain foundational knowledge in astrophysics, computational simulations, and data analysis while mastering observational techniques used in modern research. The programme offers two specialised tracks: ASTROphysics (astronomy-oriented track), focusing on observational astronomy and celestial mechanics, and astroPHYSICS (theoretical physics track), emphasising cosmology, gravitation, and astrophysical modelling. With a hands-on approach, students engage in real-world research in fields such as black holes, gravitational waves, heliophysics, and astroparticle physics, working closely with international faculty and gaining experience in observational and theoretical methods. Alongside mathematical modelling and problem-solving, the programme develops skills highly valued in industries like high-tech R&D, ICT, and finance, making graduates well-prepared for careers beyond academia. The programme provides a strong foundation for PhD studies, allowing students to continue their scientific journey and contribute to groundbreaking discoveries in astrophysics.
