Discussion in the lab with Prof. Martin Brandt

At present the Physics Department is academic home and work-place of more than 1000 students, 200 graduate students as well as 300 scientists. They all decided for one of the largest centers of physics in Europe to carry out their studies and to do research.

Our current curriculum and research areas cover the whole spectrum of physics from the smallest elementary particles to the universe. We can offer you world-wide recognized experts for astroparticles and nuclear physics, nanotechnology, biophysics, solid-state physics, neutron spectroscopy, new materials and many more.

A special characteristic of our faculty consists in the successful co-operation with many Max Planck Institutes and other non-academic research facilities on the Garching campus and in the region of Munich. Together we offer an attractive research environment with best training possibilities in all fields of physics, from fundamental research to modern applications.
