Upon completion of a degree programme, students should have gained the following transferable skills:

The ability to analyse causes of natural phenomena
A familiarity with the methods used in science
The ability to present results in a form accessible to either scientists or members of the public
The capability to analyse data using computer resources

Upon completion of a degree programme, the students should have:

Gained an insight into the fundamental laws of physics and nature
Learnt how to see the links between different natural phenomena
Gained basic experimental skills
Learnt how to solve physical models analytically and computationally

Certain prior qualifications can be acknowledged and accepted as successfully completed lecture courses. If the content and duration of the lecture course completed elsewhere is comparable to a course at the Department of Physics, it can be awarded the same number of ECTS credits. A written request, including proof of qualifications, must be made. Each case is considered by the study committee of the Department of Physics on an individual basis. Please note that it is advisable to consult the Student Support Office in such circumstances.

Assessment methods are consistent with the UL Statute and specified in the syllabi.

In order to progress to the second year, one must have fulfilled all the requirements of the following lecture courses: Physics I, Mathematics I, Physics Laboratory I and II, and have obtained at least 54 ECTS in the first year (including the credits obtained from the compulsory lecture courses listed above).
In order to progress to the third year, one must have successfully completed the first year (60 ECTS) and fulfilled all the requirements of the following lecture courses: Physics II, Mathematics II, Physics Laboratory III and IV, and have obtained at least 54 ECTS in the second year (including the credits obtained from the compulsory lecture courses listed above).

In order to repeat a year, the following requirements have to be fulfilled:

At least half of the required credits of the current year must have been obtained, that is 30 ECTS, and
All requirements of preceding years must have been met entirely.

Transfers from other degree programmes, as well as transfers between physics programmes, are possible. They are, however, subject to conditions and requirements determined by the study committee of the Department of Physics. Enquiries should be made to the Student Support Office.

To complete their studies, students must fulfill all requirements for all courses they have enrolled in, complete practical training, and prepare and defend a final thesis, which amounts to a total of 180 ECTS credits.
