Use your advanced research skills to contribute to new developments in applied physics.

Our wide-ranging applied physics expertise gives you opportunities to develop specialist knowledge and honed research skills in your chosen area.

Under expert supervision, you join researchers already active in:

• advanced characterization techniques
• applied geophysics
• biophysics and biological physics
• computational modeling of matter
• condensed matter
• functional coatings
• industrial and building acoustics
• molecular transport in biological membranes
