Course Details

Objectives: The Master's in Fundamental Physics and Applications at the University of Montpellier offers a very diversified education that covers different fields of physics, ranging from astrophysics to nanomaterials, including the physics of soft matter and biological systems. Training in the emerging fields of the physics-chemistry, physics-biology, physics-medicine and physics-computing interface are offered in particular.

The Cosmos, Fields and Particles (CCP) course is at the intersection of astrophysics, cosmology and particle physics, commonly referred to as astroparticles. Sources of cosmic rays and their detection techniques, the accelerated expansion of the Universe, the cosmic microwave background, future large-field cosmic surveys, gravitational waves, dark matter and dark energy, the study of standard model of particle physics and its extensions in colliders are all facets of this booming international research program which opens new windows on our universe. Recent discoveries in particle physics, astroparticles and cosmology have generated a large flow of theses in laboratories in France and abroad. Students in this course are destined for a career as university teacher-researchers, researchers in major national (CNRS, CEA, CNAP) or international (CERN) organizations. The skills acquired during this training are also particularly appreciated by the business world, particularly in the fields of research and development or IT (big data, artificial intelligence, etc.).

Degree Level (EU) : 7 - (EQC level or equivalent)
