Why choose Applied Physics?
Applied Physics is about understanding and shaping the materials and devices that drive technological progress. You’ll work on challenges in areas like neuromorphic computing, nano-electronics, smart coatings and energy conversion.
The programme offers a strong link between fundamental research and practical application. You’ll study at the Zernike Institute for Advanced Materials, one of the leading research centres in the field. Projects often focus on the design and behaviour of functional materials at the micro and nanoscale, with close ties to industry.
Graduates find opportunities in research and development at companies such as ASML, Philips and Photonis. Many pursue PhDs in the Netherlands or abroad. The combination of technical expertise, research experience and analytical skills prepares you for a broad range of careers in science and engineering.
