There are several specialisations or 'tracks':
Advanced Matter and Energy Physics
Astronomy and Astrophysics
Gravitation Astroparticle Physics (GRAPPA)
Physics of Life and Health
Science, Business and Innovation
Science for Energy and Sustainability
Theoretical Physics
The University of Amsterdam (UvA) is internationally renowned for its physics and astronomy research activities. Institutes, such as the Dutch National Institute for Subatomic Physics (Nikhef), in which the UvA collaborates, are also situated at Science Park.
Students and researchers participate in networks and collaborative projects such as those in the particle accelerator laboratory of the European Organization for Nuclear Research CERN in Geneva, the FOM-Institutes for Atomic and Molecular Physics (AMOLF) and Plasma Physics Rijnhuizen.
Physics and Astronomy is a joint degree programme of the University of Amsterdam and VU University Amsterdam. Courses are given at the two Faculties of Science. Graduates receive a diploma accredited by both universities. Therefore, as a Physics annd Astronomy student you benefit from the expertise, networks and research projects at both universities.

Studieprogramma
tracks
track Advanced Matter and Energy Physics
Amsterdam experimental physics is among the best in the world.
This track offers you challenging courses and research opportunities in hot topics that are the current focus of attention in laboratories around the
Next generation energy materials and processes (such as nanocrystals, nanowires and nanophotonic systems for tomorrow's solar energy conversion)
Complex condensed matter systems (with properties like unconventional superconductivity)
Complex liquids, granular, soft and biomatter (with properties like jamming and self-organisation)
New forms of ultracold atomic quantum matter (with properties like strong correlations and entanglement)
Precision measurements on (cold) atoms and molecules, to test fundamental physics theories
2D metallic states at the surface of 3D topological insulators, and the phenomena these states can be used to explore (such as Majorana fermions and magnetic monopoles)
State-of-the-art lasers.
