Is this programme for you?

You enjoy analysing mathematical and physical problems and developing technological solutions. You enjoy physics classes at school and achieve good grades for science subjects in general. You will need to be exceptionally good at mathematics because physicists use maths as a "language" for describing the universe.

Applied physics involves thinking about technical or practical applications of physics. You will learn to create designs and physical measuring equipment and use your knowledge to solve problems.

Why study Applied Physics with the University of Groningen?

This programme has a strong interdisciplinary orientation, with an emphasis on combinations of subjects: physics with design studies, nanotechnology, new materials and systems and control engineering.

You are able to study Physics alongside Applied Physics, and you don't have to choose between them right away. We are the only university in The Netherlands to offer a broad Bachelor's programme that allows you to explore various natural sciences.

At the University of Groningen, you will be taught by researchers who have gained a worldwide reputation in their fields.

Our linked Zernike Institute for Advanced Materials is ranked in the top 15 of its kind in the world.
