Overview

Physics and Scientific Modelling from the Roskilde University provides training in experimental, theoretical, and numeric methods to solve problems in physics and other fields. The weighting of experiments, theory and numeric techniques is determined by your choices in the study programme.

The point of departure is the understanding of physics and the laws of nature, but in this study programme, there is a special focus on independent work in identifying which physical concepts and mathematical and numerical methods that are relevant to solve a given problem. In the projects, it is possible to immerse yourself in experimental, computer science and / or mathematical aspects of modelling. At the same time, it is possible to apply the physics competencies outside of classical physics subjects if you want a clear interdisciplinary profile.

The aim of the study programme is to give you competencies and methods to work systematically and critically with physics, modelling and data science in connection with problems in a wide range of fields.

Career

Our candidates graduate to a wealth of opportunities within teaching, research, and development in all areas and sectors where physics, mathematics and scientific modelling play a role. You can find jobs in the energy sector, hospital physics, medicine, finance, software development, data science as well as in companies that either provide or purchase modelling or consultancy tasks.
