Physics: Research in Physics, Cosmology
Structure of the Programme
The Cosmology specialisation is positioned at the interface between Theoretical Physics and Observational Astronomy, and is offered jointly with the department of Astronomy. Characteristic elements of the specialisation are theory, data handling, and numerical simulations. It prepares the student for scientific research towards the PhD in a range of topics. The MSc graduate will also be well-equipped for industrial research or other problem-solving tasks that demand strong analytical, computational, and problem-solving skills. This 2-year programme is offered in collaboration with the De Sitter programme
Study Plan
At the start of the Master’s programme, students are required to create a study plan: this plan includes a complete list of planned courses and projects for two subsequent academic years in consultation with the Study Advisor Physics
