At the Group of Integrated Photonics, you’ll join researchers working at the forefront of lightwave technologies. Our projects combine fundamental physics with applied engineering and often connect to real-world applications in sensing, communications, and quantum technologies.
As a student in our group, you will:
Explore our past theses and publications to see what students before you have achieved, and get inspired for your own project.
The Bachelor’s project is your first chance to carry out an independent research project in integrated photonics. You will work with us on a focused problem that may involve building an experiment, testing devices, developing software, or running simulations. The project gives you a taste of how real research is done while strengthening your engineering skills.
What to expect
Formulate and analyze a scientific problem in electrical engineering.
Use experimental or computational methods to address it.
Apply engineering techniques to complete a focused project.
Critically evaluate and discuss your findings in a research context.
Present your results in a clear scientific report and an oral exam.
👉 See the official course catalogue: Bachelor’s Project in Electrical Engineering
These projects give Master’s students in Electrical Engineering the chance to work with us on applied research challenges in integrated photonics. The focus is on solving practical problems, building setups, testing devices, or developing software tools that support our experimental work. Projects can be carried out at the university or in collaboration with industry partners.
What to expect
Carry out a hands-on project that connects engineering skills with real research questions.
Work on tasks such as laser characterization, photonic circuit testing, building electronic drivers, or developing analysis software.
Receive supervision from our group, with the possibility of collaborating with a company.
Submit a technical report at the end of the project, following engineering conventions.
👉 Flexible formats
These short projects let you contribute directly to our research in integrated photonics during your Master’s studies. You will work with us on a focused question in experimental or theoretical physics, often linked to ongoing experiments, device modeling, or data analysis in the lab.
What to expect
Take on a well-defined research task, such as testing a measurement technique, simulating a device, or writing analysis tools.
Receive close supervision from our group and participate in our weekly activities.
Write a short scientific report that documents your results and connects them to current research.
Tailor the project to your interests, with the option of collaboration with industry partners.
