Study year 1

Master (Two Years), Engineering Physics (TTFYM), Study programme for batch Autumn 13

According to the study programme these courses are part of study year 1.

Please note that application codes and periods are based on academic year Autumn 13/Spring 14. Reading this year on a later occasion, other application codes and periods may apply.

Specialisations

Track, Theoretical Physics (TFYA)

At least 25 hp of the conditionally elective courses has to be studied. The listing of conditionally elective courses as belonging to year 1 or year 2 is only indicative. Provided that the students fulfil the prerequisites, the courses can be taken during either year.

After consultation with the programme director, students may choose appropriate courses from all the course lists of the different tracks. It is also possible, after consultation with the programme director, to choose other, non-listed, courses.

Track, Optical Physics (TFYC)

At least 25 hp of the conditionally elective courses has to be studied. Several courses are listed as conditionally elective for both year 1 and year 2. This means that the students are free to take these courses during either year,as long as the prerequisites are fulfilled (see course descriptions).

After consultation with the programme director, students may choose appropriate courses from all the course lists of the different tracks. It is also possible, after consultation with the programme director, to choose other, non-listed, courses.

At least 25 hp of the conditionally elective courses has to be studied. Several courses are listed as conditionally elective for both year 1 and year 2. This means that the students are free to take these courses during either year, as long as the prerequisites are fulfilled (see course descriptions).

Among the conditionally elective courses there are three that can be studied at Stockholm University: FK3004 Cond. Mat. Physics, 7,5 hp (as an alt. to IM2660), FK7018 Nanotechnology, 7,5 cr and FK7019 Superconductivity, 7,5 cr (as an alt. to IM2661).

After consultation with the programme director, students may choose appropriate courses from all the course lists of the different tracks. It is also possible, after consultation with the programme director, to choose other, non-listed, courses.
