Physics: Research in Physics, Casimir pre-PhD
Programme Research in Physics, pre-PhD (Casimir)
Below you will find the outline for the specialisation progamme pre-PhD Casimir.
MSc Casimir Pre Phd (2 study projects 8 EC; 1 research project 36 EC) conditions:
The projects must always be pre-approved by the Casimir coordinator Dr. Luca Giomi
The 2 study projects must have different supervisors.
One of the 2 study projects must be experimental, the other must be theoretical or mixed theoretical-experimental
The 36 EC research project can be either experimental or theoretical or mixed theoretical-experimental.
The 8 EC study projects in the Casimir pre-PhD specialization receive one combined grade for the research and presentation (oral or written or both).
Occasionally a theoretical research project can be a continuation of the theoretical study project and combined into one 44 EC research project, with special permission from the Casimir coordinator (Luca Giomi).
Data analysis may be part of the project, but the essence/main goal must be physics.
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 for two subsequent academic years in consultation with the Study Advisor Physics
