The Bachelor's program of Applied Physics is part of the TU/e Bachelor College.
The program consists of:\ • Core courses on Applied-Physics theory and skills\ • Electives for designing an individual part of the study program\ • Impact of Technology courses for societal awareness \ • A capstone project to conclude your bachelor’s program \ • Professional & personal development, integrated in all courses and projects.\ \ Applied Physics and Mathematics core courses will develop your theoretical understanding for becoming a physicist, being able to translate knowledge into technological applications. Apart from theory, a variety of skills in the field of experiments, experimental design, data handling, automation and computational physics are embedded in the program. This is carefully integrated with developing your unique professional and personal skills as an Applied Physics graduate.
Curriculum
The Applied Physics theory, skills and Impact of Technology courses amount to 75% of the entire Applied Physics program. The remaining 25% is for the Elective courses, where you can make individual choices for further deepening your skills and knowledge in physics or to broaden towards other disciplines at TU/e. The electives allow you to align your study program with your own personal interests, by picking particular themes within the program and to e.g. prepare for a specific follow-up master program. You can find more detailed information about the curriculum in the Education Guide below.
Final Bachelor's project
Theory and skills come together in the Bachelor’s End Project (BEP). For example, you can enter one of the research groups as a junior Applied Physicist or work in a student team at Innovation Space.
Research group
Within a team of researchers, you’ll tackle an exciting challenge in physics and applications, and you present the results of your work and report during a scientific presentation.
Innovation Space
This is an alternative to the basic BEP option within your own study program. These projects are offered by either companies, student teams or by teachers/researchers. These are real-world open-ended challenges. Check out this page for more information about ISBEP.
Note:\ The Education guide is a document used by current students as a source of information. It contains detailed, practical information that is important during the entire program.
Op zoek naar extra uitdaging: Gecombineerde bachelor
Are you looking for an extra challenge? Or do you find it hard to choose between the Bachelor's programs of Applied Mathematics and Applied Physics? At TU/e you can also follow a combined program.
In a combined program, the most important subjects of each bachelor program are retained. There is quite an overlap between the programs. You can therefore obtain two degrees with additional credits. The program is approximately 25% more demanding. Read more about combined bachelor's program.
ATTENTION: If you opt for a combined bachelor's program, you have to apply for both programs in Studielink!

Challenge-based learning at TU/e
Challenge-Based Learning
At Applied Physics, it's not just lectures and interactive instruction (in smaller groups) that are offered. You’ll also apply your knowledge to Challenge-Based Learning (CBL) projects. Within CBL, students work together in teams on exciting technological and societal challenges within Applied Physics or in collaboration with students from other programs at TU/e.
