Master in Engineering Physics

For Master in Engineering Physics, the tuition fee is 2,300 EUR per year.

Engineering Physics is a master's degree delivered in English at Universita Ca' Foscari VENEZIA in Venezia, Italy, lasting 2 years. This discipline applies core principles of physics to engineering problems, sitting between fundamental physics research and applied technological development. Typical coursework includes advanced mathematics, quantum mechanics, materials science, electromagnetism, and solid-state physics, alongside applied subjects such as photonics, nanotechnology, instrumentation, and computational modeling. Students learn to design and analyze physical systems and devices, often working with laboratory equipment to measure and characterize materials or physical phenomena. Because the field emphasizes both theory and application, coursework generally combines classroom instruction with laboratory sessions and project work that require translating physical principles into working models or prototypes. Programming and numerical simulation are commonly part of the curriculum, since engineering physicists frequently use computational tools to model systems that are difficult or costly to test experimentally. Depending on specialization, students may focus on areas such as optics and photonics, semiconductor physics, energy systems, or advanced materials. Graduates of engineering physics programs typically pursue careers in research and development roles across technology, aerospace, energy, telecommunications, and materials industries, as well as positions in academic or industrial research laboratories. The degree also prepares students for further doctoral study in physics or engineering disciplines. Because the field requires a strong quantitative foundation, graduates are often valued for their ability to approach technical problems analytically and to work across traditional boundaries between physics and engineering. English-medium instruction in Venezia makes the program accessible to students from a range of academic and national backgrounds interested in this interdisciplinary combination of science and applied engineering.
