The agreement between the L,M. Physics offered by UNIMORE and the  M.Sc. in Physics and Astronomy at Radboud Universiteit in Nijmegen (NL) the agreement allows you to obtain both degrees simultaneously, after spending a year at each institution.

The Faculty of Science of the RU is a European reference center for physics research, home to the HFML , one of the European facilities for the production of ultra-high magnetic fields for the study of matter in extreme conditions, and an institutional partner in Virgo and LISA collaborations for the study of gravitational waves. The program provides access to research programs in  particles and astroparticles, quantum matter and neurophysics.

The program is accessed through a selection process at the beginning of the master's degree course (by December). A personalized study plan is established for each participant, according to the candidate's scientific interests, in use of the sectors of the agreement ( particles and astroparticles, quantum matter and neurophysics ), integrating the skills acquired at both institutions through courses and seminars and finalized to a joint thesis research project to be carried out in the second year. 

The admitted students will attend the courses agreed at UNIMORE, and will move to RU in the second year, dedicated entirely to research and training activities aimed at the degree thesis. Students will defend their thesis at one of the two institutions. The research program during the year abroad is fully recognized in place of the exams normally scheduled in the second year.

Participants in the program are subject to normal university fees (including any concessions) and can benefit from an Erasmus scholarship, according to the usual announcement issued every year, usually in January.
