During the first year, students spend 1 day per week in a laboratory of their choice in the Institute of Physics (IPHYS).
To help you make your choice, you will find presentation videos here. Some are still missing, but you can take a look at the lab’s website.
You must contact the laboratory you are interested in before the start of each semester to agree on a project. Some labs can only accommodate a small number of students. We recommend contacting 2 or 3 labs.
Projects generally take place on Mondays, but you can arrange a different schedule with the lab director.
It is not compulsory to do the Physics Projects consecutively. Depending on your study plan, you can do the first in MA1 and the 2nd in MA3, i.e. 2 times in the autumn semester, for example.
Report
It is compulsory to submit a written report (mini thesis) to your supervisor with introduction, development, conclusion and bibliography/references.
An oral defence is not compulsory, to be discussed with your supervisor.
Deadlines for submitting the report to your supervisor:
Friday 3rd January 2025 for the autumn semester
Friday 6th June 2025 for the spring semester
