The Institute of Physics is located on the Weinberg/Heide-Süd campus, in the immediate vicinity of Fraunhofer research facilities, the Technology and Start-up Centre (TGZ) and the Max Planck Institute for Microstructure Physics. The renovated physics buildings, which were occupied in 2009, offer state-of-the-art facilities for research and teaching.

Physics in Halle presents itself as an efficient centre for research and application of condensed matter, with internationally networked theoretical and experimental specialist groups. The main areas of research are:

  • Synthetic and biological macromolecules,
  • Solid interfaces and nanostructures,
  • Energy conversion and storage materials,
  • Medical physics (imaging).

Students are familiarised with the latest experimental and theoretical methods at an early stage and quickly come into contact with current research through individual support. Solid state physics with state-of-the-art scanning tunnelling microscopy or optical spectroscopy, polymer research based on a wide range of scattering methods and highly developed nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, each with attractive questions from basic and applied research, and many other activities of the experimental groups dominate the physics picture. Strong theoretical groups work with numerical and analytical methods in close interaction with the experiments.

In addition to the standard Bachelor's and Master's degree programmes in physics and physics teaching, our special programmes in

  • Medical Physics (in German language)
  • Physics and Digital Technologies (in German language)
  • Physik Plus 120 LP (in German language)
  • Renewable Energies (in German language)
  • Polymer Materials Science (in English language)

also offer a wide range of opportunities to get involved in research at the Institute and to be inspired.
