Admission and Requirements

Application Periods & Deadlines

The general Deadlines for the applications are:

  • Starting winter semester (October): May 1st for the following winter semester
  • Starting summer semester (April): November 1st of the previous year for the following summer semester

Students may start (equivalently) either in winter or in summer semester. Classes begin in either October or April, respectively. There is no application fee.

Please note, that despite of the above mentioned Deadlines, all applications are reviewed by the faculties admissions committee on a rolling basis when received and a decision on admission can be expected within two months.

Language Requirements and Skills

The proof of skills in the English language should be at a level not lower than:

a) Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) with at least 550 points (paper-based TOEFL) or 72 points (Internet-based TOEFL)
b) International Englisch Language Test System (IELTS) with a return of 6.0 or better
c) Cambridge Certificate in Advanced English (CAE)

In addition, German language skills (minmum A2 according CEFR) are strongly recommended. They do not have to be proven to the university officials.

Academic Requirements and Skills

Admission to the program shall be conditional on the following prerequisites (to be met cumulatively):

1.    A Bachelor’s degree (180 ECTS ECTS) completed at Universität Würzburg (JMU) or another higher education institution in Germany or abroad or an equivalent German or foreign qualification (e.g. State Examination) and 
2.    Proof of 
a) Competences on a scale totalling at least 24 ECTS from modules in the following sub-areas of experimental physics: Mechanics, electromagnetism, optics, thermodynamics, atomic und molecular physics, solid state physics, nuclear and elementary particle physics,
b) Competences on a scale of at least 22 ECTS from modules in the following sub-areas of theoretical physics: Theoretical mechanics, quantum mechanics, theoretical electrodynamics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics,
c) Competences on a scale of at least 22 ECTS from modules in the following sub-areas of mathematics: Analysis, linear algebra, differential equations, complex analysis,
d) Competences on a scale of at least 12 ECTS from physics laboratory courses in the following sub-areas: Mechanics, thermodynamics, electrics, atomic and nuclear physics, optics, computer systems and metrology,
e) Competences on a scale of at least a further 30 ECTS from modules in the overall field of physics or minor subjects related to physics, and
f) A thesis on a scale of at least 10 ECTS on a topic from a sub-area of physics or in the case of an interdisciplinary thesis on a topic in which physics methods are essentially applied, according to the ECTS credits scheme used at JMU for the B.Sc. in Physics or – in the case of programmes not modularised within the meaning of the ECTS credits scheme – competences on the corresponding scale (as a rule acquired in the framework of the first degree indicated under Letter a)). The required competences are taught at JMU in particular in the framework of the B.Sc. in Physics (180 ECTS credits).
