In this Master's track you will reflect on current research topics such as quantum systems, quantum information and soft matter as in the physics of living matter. Further more you will focus on particle physics; string theory, cosmology and the standard model.
The programme is firmly embedded in the Institute for Theoretical Physics (ITFA) which provides a comprehensive introduction into the world of well respected research groups. Because of the unique combination of expertise from several departments of the University of Amsterdam (UvA) and the VU University Amsterdam(VU), this Master's track provides a broad spectrum of research areas. There is also close collaboration with institutions such as the Van der Waals-Zeeman Institute (WZI) and the The National Institute for Nuclear Physics and High Energy Physics (Nikhef).
