Licence in Sciences, Technologies, Health, with a major in Physics
Type of course: Physics & Physics - Chemistry

Goals

The Licence's degree in Physics (Physics) is designed to provide training in Physics to prepare for careers in engineering (after pursuing and specializing in a Master's degree or engineering school) in all areas of physics.
In addition to the Physics major, the other subjects necessary for the scientific culture or cross-disciplinary skills of future graduates (Mathematics, Chemistry, Computer Science, English) are taught throughout the curriculum.

The Physics-Chemistry pathway, sharing UEs from the Physics and Chemistry licence's degrees, aims at a balanced training in both disciplines, either for careers in materials or process engineering, or for teaching careers.

Internships

A compulsory internship is included in the L3S6 curriculum.
The aim of the internship is to discover the professional life envisaged by the student and it can take place in a company, a research laboratory or an educational establishment.
It should last 3 weeks and can be carried out in one block at the end of S6 or in several periods during the year of L3. A written production and/or an oral presentation will be made at the end of the internship.
