A vital aspect and likely the secret to success in physics is that it traces back natural phenomena to a relatively small number of fundamental laws of physics, which are always expressed mathematically. Therefore, the solid mathematical skills<\/strong> acquired in the bachelor\u2019s degree program are essential for a deeper understanding of physics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At JGU, the Master of Science in Physics is an English-language degree program<\/strong>. Generally, the German Abitur certificate will be accepted as proof of English-language proficiency as long as the applicant has continuously taken English classes up until the end of year 11 (G-8 Abitur) or year 12 with final grades of 4.0 (sufficient) or higher.<\/p>\n\n\n<\/jgu-base-heading>\n\n\n\n

A bachelor\u2019s degree in Physics with a grade of 3.0 or higher or a comparable higher education degree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \n<\/jgu-base-heading>\n\n\n\n

Your overall grade must be converted to the German grading system.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If your converted grade is below 3.0, you must provide a certificate from your previous university showing that you were in the top 20 % of your class in the natural sciences. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This certificate must also contain information on how many final grades were used to calculate the percentage ranking. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

If the certificate is based on less than 50 final grades, it cannot be accepted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \n<\/jgu-base-buttonitem>\n\n<\/jgu-base-button>\n\n<\/jgu-base-modal>\n\n\n
