Applied Physics

Do you want to understand fundamental physics and contribute to advanced new technologies? Then this Bachelor’s is right for you. You learn how to apply physical principles to innovations such as quantum computers, smart chips and new batteries - important developments for a sustainable future. Alongside theoretical courses, you gain practical experience through projects and lab work, guided by leading researchers. 

Thanks to the programme’s small-scale setting, teaching is personal and informal, and you'll become part of a close-knit community where students and lecturers know each other well.

There's plenty of room for personal choices and extracurricular activities, such as joining a student team or pursuing a second degree. This study has been among the highest-rated physics bachelor’s programmes in the Netherlands for years. With a master’s degree, graduates quickly find jobs in research and development, management and consultancy, secondary education, or engineering and production.
