Guidelines for applying to internships or Bachelor/Master projects and theses
Bachelor/Master projects and theses for students from the ETH Domain (ETH, EPFL, Empa, PSI): As we offer a wide range of topics between optics and condensed-matter physics, experiment and theory, fundamentals and application, it is important to meet for discussing the topic that meets your strengths and preferences best. Please contact for this purpose and for your application.
If you are applying for an external internship, Bachelor or Master thesis, send your application or any enquiries to
because otherwise it cannot be considered. Please add an explicit confirmation that you are able and willing to take care of travel and living costs as there will not be financial support from our side.
