• Good practical knowledge of Calculus, Geometry and Algebra.
• Basic notions of Chemistry.
• Good understanding of basical Classical Mechanics, Thermodynamics, Electromagnetism and Optics.
• Familiarity of experimentation and its techniques; basic electronics.

• Knowledge of the main theories in Classical and Modern Physics, Special Relativity, Quantum Mechanics and relative mathematical methods, and elements of Statistical Mechanics.
• Sufficient mastership of the English language to understand Physics textbooks in English and lectures in English.
• Computing skills : ability to use existing scientific programs.
• Ability to understand and solve (or at least know how can be solved) Physics problems.

DEGREE  FOR REGISTRATION:

Generally, the aforementioned requirements are met by candidates who possess a bachelor degree in Physics, or Italian Laurea Triennale belonging to the so-called class L-30 (DM 270/2004), class 25 (ex DM 509/1999), or have a certified foreign bachelor degree. A good command of spoken and written english is also required.

THE ASSESSMENT OF THE PHYSICS  BACKGROUND:

The evaluation of the applicant’s qualifications and Physics background will be done by an Evaluation Committee appointed by the CCS, via an Admission interview on the basic knowledge requested and the applicant’s scientific background required for acceptance, in order  to determine:
1.    Acceptance of the applicants for registration.
2.    Structure of courses avoiding repetition of already  known subjects and considering the applicant’s own interests.

Calendar of  admission interview

N.B. For the evaluation of foreign students, it is essential to send the description of the university system to the International office (international@unife.it), especially the hours corresponding to each course or credit, the programs and the vote conversion system
