About

The Master’s programme in Physics, Materials science from Lund University is a flexible and interdisciplinary programme for postgraduate students with a strong interest in learning about how important properties of materials depend upon the materials’ structure and constituents.

Overview

Master’s programme in Physics, Materials science from Lund University is inherently multidisciplinary and often relies on both theoretical modelling and experimental characterisation. 

Materials make up everything around us and their properties are critical to the performance of any system or device where they are used. Almost every aspect of modern society is touched by a technology made possible by advances in materials. Mobile phones, light-emitting diodes (LEDs), solar cells, catalytic converters, optical fibres and smart window materials are all examples of modern technology based upon tailored materials. 

Since the properties of a material (which determine its function) are determined both by its structure, constituents and the way that the material is assembled, the study of materials involves many different approaches.

Career prospects

Materials science is an important field for a variety of areas of science and engineering and graduates will be qualified for employment in fields ranging from industry to research laboratories in areas such as electronics, communications, life sciences, energy-related materials and at facilities such as the MAX IV Laboratory or the European Spallation Source (ESS). Graduates of the programme will be well qualified for PhD programmes in physics and physical chemistry.
