About Department of Physics

The offical website of Department of Physics is http://physics.kg.ac.rs/fizika/eng/index.html

Department of Physics was founded in 1976, at the same time as Department of the Belgrade Faculty of Sciences grew into an independent Faculty of Sciences and in Kragujevac. Department is located in the building of the former Higher Pedagogical School. Within Department, modern academic three-level studies have been organized according to the criteria and in accordance with the latest law on higher education and the Bologna Declaration.

Laboratories for computer science and electronics, electromagnetism and optics, atomic and subatomic physics, mechanics and molecular physics, and laboratory for methods of teaching physics have been formed and equipped for the experimental physics experiments at Department. The Astronomical Observatory was built and equipped on the roof of Department of Physics. A special laboratory has been formed and equipped for scientific research work in radiation physics. The Astronomical Society "BELEROFONT" lives and works in Department of Physics. Within the Informatics Laboratory, a system for remote access to experiments via the Internet called "Web Lab" is being developed.

In order to organize scientific research, groups of researchers have been formed for: radiation and nuclear physics, theoretical physics, plasma physics, informatics and computing, atomic and molecular physics and single crystal education. Almost all teachers and associates of Department are engaged in the implementation of scientific research projects funded by the Ministry of Science and Technology of the Republic of Serbia. More than half of the teachers and associates maintain scientific cooperation with partners in China, France, Russia, Spain and Greece.

Undergraduate academic studies of physics

Undergraduate studies last four years. In the third year, students choose one of four modules:

  • A - general physics
  • B - teacher of physics and computer science
  • C - information technology and electronics
  • D - medical physics

Acquired titles upon completion of the selected module are:

  • A - Bachelor of physics - for general physics
  • B - Bachelor of physics - teacher of physics and informatics
  • C - Bachelor of physics - information technology and electronics
  • D - Bachelor of physics - medical physics

Graduate Academic Studies in Physics

Graduate Academic Studies last one year. At the Graduate studies, there are five modules upon completion of which concern the following titles:

  • A1 - Master of physics - for general physics
  • A2 - Master of physics - professor of physics
  • B - Master of physics - professor of physics and informatics
  • C - Master of physics - information technology and electronics
  • D - Master of physics - medical physics

PhD academic studies in physics

PhD academic studies last for three years. Structure of the studies can be found at
