Mathematics and Physics

The doctoral programme Mathematics and Physics is devided in two directions, Mathematics and Physics, and subdivided into the following modules:

•  Mathematics, featuring modules:
  • Mathematics
  • Mathematics Education
    
    
• Physics, featuring modules:
  • Physics
  • Physics Education
  • Meteorology
  • Nuclear Engineering

Enrolment in the doctoral study programme is open to candidates who have completed:

·         a 2nd-cycle study programme;

·         a programme leading to an academic higher education qualification, adopted before 11 June 2004;

·         a study programme leading to a specialisation following a completed professional higher education programme. Additional study requirements for individual courses or modules totalling 30 to 60 ECTS credits will be set for candidates by the Study Committee of the Department of Mathematics or Department of Physics, respectively;

·         a study programme leading to professions regulated by EU directives, or another integrated master’s degree programme evaluated at 300 ECTS credits;

·         a study programme leading to a master of science degree or specialisation, if the candidate has previously completed a programme leading to an academic higher education qualification. Course units totalling 60 ECTS credits are recognised for candidates based on their application, as provided by law.

Enrolment in the doctoral programme in Mathematics and Physics is also open to graduates of foreign universities. The equivalence of previously acquired education in a foreign country will be established by means of the procedure for the recognition of foreign qualifications for the purposes of further education in accordance with the Statutes of the University of Ljubljana.

In the event of restricted enrolment, candidates will be selected based on:

·          grade point average (15%),

·          grade of university diploma or master’s thesis (5%),

·          success in the selection exam (80%), which comprises a written exam in the field of mathematics or physics. Candidates can substitute 40% of the written exam grade with a grade from prior scientific and professional work in the field of the study programme.
