Physicists probe the world and create new knowledge through experience and reasoning. To achieve this, their training must not only enable them to master mathematical and IT tools, but also to develop their creativity and capacity for innovation. This will enable them to develop new methods and tools for solving current and future problems, with rigor and efficiency.

Physics training and the skills it develops should enable students to become operational in fields ranging from medicine to finance, from basic to applied sciences.

The physical sciences are an exciting field, requiring autonomy and determination.

 

Brussels has had close ties with physics for almost a century, through the Solvay Councils, created in 1911. Today, the ULB Physics Department is still home to the management of the Solvay International Institutes of Physics and Chemistry, which host internationally renowned speakers and events throughout the year.
