Master's program

Computer Modeling of quantum and nanophotonic systems

Computational physics takes place at the intersection of several sciences: physics, mathematics, and information technology. Currently, a large part of research, both in fundamental and applied science, is performed with various calculations. To implement these calculations, researchers are needed with a basic education in physics and mathematics: experts who not only use ready-made software, but also can write their own programs. We educate such experts within the framework of the computational physics track. As a result, our graduates will be able to work not only in science, but also in industrial projects related to both applied physics and IT.

The track includes both specialized and general courses, which can be divided into physical, mathematical and programming ones. Students will study special methods of computational and applied mathematics and machine learning; the program covers such sections of computational physics as integration of dynamical systems, modeling of semiconductor and optical devices, and offers practice in software development. Students can also choose additional courses in physics and mathematics from other tracks. An essential feature of this course are specialized group projects, in which the students develop software, supervised by professional programmers.

Academic mobility
Academic mobility is an integral part of the research world, since the most outstanding results are obtained in close cooperation with international partners. Students and faculty members undergo long-term and short-term internships in leading scientific centers around the world, including within the framework of international educational programs

Students of the Faculty of Physics can go on an exchange to study at a foreign university with which the faculty and the University have established cooperation. For more detailed information, advice and assistance on exchange programs, please contact Daria Zamotina.

Examples of universities where our students study:

  • University of Iceland, Iceland
  • Radboud University, the Netherlands - Erasmus+ scholarship program available
  • University of Lorraine, France - Erasmus+ scholarship program available
