Overview

The Physics programme at Université PSL is spread over two years and 120 ECTS, requesting full-time studies.

Key facts

This Master provides a general course of study during the first year and opportunities for specialization in the second year. Students have the opportunity to work in laboratories covering most of the fields of fundamental physics, including the most highly applied forms.
Upon completion of a dissertation, students have mainly access to careers in academia or with major research agencies (CNRS, CEA, IN2P3). Students can also leverage their hands-on research experience to proceed along a different professional path, ranging from teaching, public administration and consulting, to industrial or business careers.
The second year includes a seminar dedicated to research professions.

Programme Structure

Courses include

The first year of study provides a general presentation in physics, particularly in statistical physics, quantum mechanics, and relativity.

In the second year of study, students can specialize in an area of their choice.

The research internship, which takes place at the end of the second semester, is often the opportunity for students to complete their first scientific publication.

Other requirements

General requirements

Students from France or abroad can enter the program directly into the second year (M2), provided they have completed 60 recognized ECTS at the M1 level in disciplines compatible with the selected program.

Students falling within this category may be coming from non-specialized university physics programs (M1 “Physics and Applications” majors, for example) or from engineering schools (such as École Polytechnique) with a concentration in fundamental physics courses.

Prospective students must have already received thorough training in quantum mechanics and statistical physics in particular.
