The Master's Degree in Physical and Astrophysical Sciences does not have a restricted admission, but it is necessary to request the nulla osta to enroll.

Admission is allowed for those who hold a degree in the L-30 class (Physical Sciences and Technologies), ex-DM 270/04, or a degree in class 20 (Physical Sciences and Technologies), ex-DM 509/99, and who meet the minimum curricular requirements for admission.

These requirements are met by the Bachelor's Degree in Physics and Astrophysics class L-30 ex-DM 270/04 from the University of Florence. Therefore, according to the resolution of the Degree Course Council of 26/05/2014, the nulla osta for enrollment is automatically granted to students who have graduated from the University of Florence in the Bachelor's Degree in Physics and Astrophysics.

Access to the Master's Degree in Physical and Astrophysical Sciences, class LM-17 of Master's Degrees, is also allowed to those who have acquired a good basic scientific knowledge in mathematical disciplines and adequate preparation in various physical disciplines, and who hold another degree or a three-year university diploma or another title obtained abroad and recognized as suitable by the educational structure for admission to the Master's Degree.

Curricular Requirements

• at least 50 CFU in FIS/* sectors or in courses belonging to other scientific-disciplinary sectors, whose content is deemed compatible with FIS/*;
• at least 20 CFU in MAT/* sectors or in courses belonging to other scientific-disciplinary sectors, whose content is deemed compatible with MAT/*;

Adequate Individual Preparation

1. general knowledge of basic mathematics (mathematical analysis, geometry);
2. general knowledge of basic physics (classical physics: mechanics, thermodynamics, fluid physics, electromagnetism; classical physics laboratory, including data acquisition and processing);
3. general knowledge of theoretical physics and mathematical physics (mathematical methods for physics, analytical mechanics, special relativity, quantum mechanics);
4. good knowledge of written and spoken English.

If this verification is deemed satisfactory, the Educational Commission will decide on the eligibility for the Master's Degree in Physical and Astrophysical Sciences class LM-17, issuing the required nulla osta. Otherwise, the student's preparation will be assessed through an interview, which may result in the granting of the nulla osta for admission or the identification of educational obligations that the student must fulfill before enrollment, to complete their knowledge and skills adequacy.

The possible interview will be conducted by a commission made up of professors from the Teaching Committee or appointed by the Degree Course Council.

No academic debts, meaning additional educational obligations, are required at the time of access.
Any additional educational obligations must therefore be recovered before final enrollment in the Master's degree.
