• During the four-semester astrophysics master program, students can develop the ability to think astrophysically and proceed methodically in both theory and practice. The program is divided into to parts: The first two semesters consist of lectures in basic astrophysics and advanced courses in physics, while students can also choose a specialized subject area.
  • Building on the knowledge gained in the first two semesters, these abilities will be strengthened during a year-long research phase which is scheduled for the third and fourth semesters.
  • During this stage, the master thesis shall be completed with accompanying colloquia, tutorials, and seminars. The modular design of the master degree program in astrophysics allows the participants to study with emphasis in either experimental or theoretical topics. The primary goal of this course is to provide an overview into the deeper interconnections in astrophysics in a physical context.
