The study program is designed according to international standards so that its content is a state of the art in terms of the type of course content and the directions it leads.

The Solid State – Electronics – Nanotechnology direction provides a unified and dynamic educational and research framework that combines the first principles for theoretical study design, material characterization, device creation and exploitation in technological applications focusing on micro and nano electronics and nanotechnology. The laboratory equipment and the teaching and research experience of the teaching staff guarantee the result. Our graduates will have the necessary qualifications to successfully pursue postgraduate studies in Nanoelectronics and Nanotechnology science programs as well as to work in high-tech Electronics Optoelectronics, Nanotechnology.

Following the direction of Nonlinear Dynamics and Complexity is that there is a more modern and innovative physics curriculum in the world with a strong cross-disciplinary nature such as Economics, Social Physics, Forecasting time series, Artificial Intelligence, the quantum nature of Information, the applications of chaos theory. Our graduates will have the necessary qualifications to successfully pursue postgraduate studies in areas such as Data analysis, Financial forecasting, Machine learning but can work in related companies or organizations.

Finally the Physics and Energy Applications direction provides the necessary knowledge on renewable energy, medical physics, nuclear technology and biomechanics. Our graduates will have the necessary qualifications to successfully pursue postgraduate studies in Energy, Medical Physics, Environment programs. They will also have the necessary background to work in Power Generation and Distribution companies, in Hospitals, Diagnostic Centers and industries.
