Current modules from TFE4575 Physical Methods for Nanostructuring and Characterization, Specialization Course, can also be choosen.

Learning outcome

The course shall give the student an in-depth knowledge of current interests within physics.

Learning methods and activities

The modules are given as lectures, colloquia, laboratory courses or self studies. Teaching will be in English if students on international master programmes are attending the course. Examination will be held early in the exam period, and a re-sit examination will be held within the same examination period.

Recommended previous knowledge

Completed courses in the study programme for Applied Physics and Mathematics, within the study plan for Technical Physics, or equivalent.

Course materials
