Wallenberg Center Scholarship

Scholarship from the Wallenberg Center for Quantum Technology

The master’s programme in Engineering Physics bridges the gap between theoretical physics and practical engineering, seeking to develop future technology. Solving complex problems is an integral part of education, demanding in-depth knowledge of physics, as well as analytical and computational tools. Through specializations, students become domain experts in one field of physics and go on to advanced industrial R&D positions or PhD studies.

The Wallenberg Center for Quantum Technology, with extra support from the Marianne and Marcus Wallenberg Foundation, offers the EDU-WACQT scholarship in Quantum Technology.

Two scholarships are awarded each year. The scholarship is available for fee-paying students applying for the master’s programme in Engineering Physics.
