Applied Physics Curricula for hbo influx
The curriculum for students with a Bachelor of Applied Sciences (hbo) Applied Physics or Electrical Engineering is slightly different. (Depending on whether or not the transferminor AP is part of the Bachelor hbo degree the student has to do a premaster programme.)

Study programme Applied Physics
The study programme shows for each academic year in which quartile the courses are taught. The changes in the AP programme and courses compared to the previous academic year can be found in the transitional regulations.
The specialization courses and the elective courses are used to personalize the Applied Physics programme. A student can choose to have a more general Applied Physics programme, or can choose to specialize in one of our disciplinary or interdisciplinary specialization programmes.
The specialization programs of UT research groups affiliated with Applied Physics can be found in the study program and curriculum under the section Chair courses Applied Physics.
Multidisciplinary Master Programmes
As an AP-student, you can also choose to pursue a multidisciplinary master's programme. This programme is a collaboration between 2 or more master programmes where you follow education across the discipline of your own master and together with students from other programmes. On this website you find more information.

Double programmes
A double master's programme is possible, among other things, with the UT masters Applied Mathematics (AM), BioMedical Engineering (BME), Chemical Science & Engineering (CSE), Mechanical Engineering (ME), Nanotechnology (NT), Sustainable Energy Technology (SET). if admissible for both programmes.
For the design of a double master's programme, the AP programme uses the following guidelines;
General set up for double master programme (180 EC) |
30-45 EC Compulsory courses Master 11 1 Courses part of both compulsory master programmes are placed in the most appropriate programme. |
These double programmes are drawn up individually and in consultation with both the education programmes. For more information, contact the study advisor.
master science education (only in DUTCH)
It is possible to combine the MSc Applied Physics with the MSc Science Education Physics (Lerarenopleiding Natuurkunde).

Honours programmes
A Master Honours programme is a 15 EC programme aimed at students who want to enrich their study experience. Students can choose from three tracks, each having a unique character and developmental goals.
