Study physics in Stockholm

First class education - The physics department at Stockholm University offers inspiring and interesting Bachelor’s and Master’s programmes, PhD programmes with ample opportunities for front line research, and courses for the general public.

Courses up to the Bachelor’s level are taught almost exclusively in Swedish, while courses on the Master’s level are given in English.
