Learn about the structure of the study programme.
- Having completed the Light Engineering programme, you will be ready to take on complex challenges that demand a solid grasp of physics, chemistry and mathematics. You will also gain practical insight into material synthesis and characterisation, the principles behind lasers, photovoltaic and light‑emitting devices, as well as hands‑on skills in programming, lighting design and standard laboratory procedures.
- You will not just learn theory – you will be equipped to apply it in practice. By the time you graduate, you will have the technological expertise and engineering competencies needed in high‑tech industries.
Entry qualification
High school / secondary education (or higher)
N.B. for non-EU/EFTA applicants: the gap since your completed secondary degree should not exceed five years.
The grades in Physics, Mathematics shall not be lower than 55 per cent of the maximum possible grade.
The candidates meeting the established criteria are invited to the motivational interview. During the interview, the candidate’s determination to study in the technology field study programme based on experimental works is evaluated. If the interview is evaluated negatively, the candidate is not admitted to the study programme.
