Engineering Physics
Study specialization
The focal area Engineering Physics is designed for students with a strong interest in physics-based approaches within engineering. It focuses on electromagnetically dominated and multiphysical systems in which electric and magnetic fields, waves, particles, transport processes, material properties, and nonlinear dynamics are strongly coupled.
The program combines a solid foundation in electromagnetic field theory, quantum mechanics, plasma technology, photonics, and microsystems technology with modern methods of theoretical analysis, modeling, simulation, experimental diagnostics, and laboratory work. Students learn to analyze complex physical and technological systems theoretically, investigate them experimentally, model them quantitatively, and contribute to their technological realization.
The focal area includes courses on plasma technology, photonics, quantum mechanics, fields, waves and particles, microsystems, and plasma diagnostics and laboratory experiments. Students can further specialize in competence areas such as plasma engineering, photonics, microsystems technology, and modeling and simulation.
Engineering Physics provides a research-oriented profile within the Master's program in Electrical Engineering and Information Technology. It prepares students for scientific and industrial careers in modern high-technology fields, including plasma and surface technology, optical technologies, semiconductor and microsystems technology, numerical simulation, and related areas of applied physics and engineering.
