The Physics Department of the TUM is not only one of the largest and most important research centres for Physics in Europe, but also the academic home for more than 1,000 students, 200 doctoral candidates and 300 academics. 10 good reasons to study Physics at the TUM: Extensive range of courses offered; renown; outstanding academics; varied opportunities for research; excellent supervision; internationality; excellent IT infrastructure; Garching campus: Everything on site; high-tech metropolis of Munich.

The research areas of the Physics department cover a comprehensive spectrum from the smallest elementary particles to biophysical systems to the properties of condensed matter. One particular advantage of the location is the excellent integration with the Garching Campus and the close links with the numerous Max Planck institutes and other research centres. The department's strength in research is shown by the successful participation in numerous Collaborative Research Centres, Transregios, excellence clusters and relevant rankings.

A wide range of central services offered by TUM supports, promotes and helps young entrepreneurs with specific facilities to implement their ideas and set up companies. Among others are: Chair of Business Administration, Strategy and Organisation, KfW Endowed Chair of Entrepreneurial Finance, Chair of Business Administration - Entrepreneurship, start-up consulting, UnternehmerTUM, Gate, Munich Business Plan Competition.

Research Neutron Source and Physics Department are the nuclei of the Garching Campus and even today exude scientific attractiveness, initiative and innovation. Numerous renowned institutes, faculties and research institutions have been added and today the campus is the largest site of the TUM. It is home to various research institutions of the Max Planck Society, the Bayerische Akademie der Wissenschaften (Bavarian Academy of Sciences) and the LMU. The settling of companies here completes the campus and builds a bridge for the economic utilisation of innovative ideas.
