FISICA

For FISICA, tuition costs 2,056 EUR per year.

Physics is the study of matter, energy, and the fundamental forces and laws that govern the physical universe, ranging from subatomic particles to the structure of the cosmos. A master's programme in physics builds on undergraduate training in classical and quantum mechanics, electromagnetism, and thermodynamics, moving into more advanced and specialised areas such as particle physics, condensed matter physics, astrophysics, or applied physics, depending on the programme's orientation. Students typically combine theoretical coursework with laboratory work and computational methods, learning to design experiments, analyse data, and model physical systems mathematically. Graduates in physics pursue careers in research institutions, universities, and industry sectors that rely on advanced technical and analytical skills, including technology, aerospace, energy, telecommunications, and finance. Physics training is often valued outside physics itself because of the strong quantitative and problem-solving abilities it develops, leading some graduates into data science, engineering, or software roles. Others continue into doctoral research, working toward careers in academic or industrial physics research. This two-year Physics master's programme is offered by Università degli Studi di Milano-Bicocca, based in Milano, Italy, and taught in English. As a master's-level programme, it is intended for students who already hold a bachelor's degree in physics or a closely related quantitative field. The English-medium format is designed to make advanced physics study accessible to an international student body at a university with an established presence in the sciences within the Milano area.
