Are you a young scientist with a background in physics, materials science, or a related research field and do you have a creative and inquisitive mind? Do you like to think outside-the-box? Do you want to meet new people? If yes, apply now for the eleventh ‘Physics with Industry’ workshop.

This workshop introduces young physicists to industrial research. For a whole week they work in a team on a real company issue. Participants are mostly PhD students or postdocs. In addition, a senior researcher is assigned to each team, to ensure progress and scientific quality. 

The previous editions of Physics with Industry were a great success, this year the 11th workshop will take place.

Young researchers gain new insights into physics-related problems from companies and the industrial R&D approach, but also expand their network, and experience working in a refreshingly different format, based on a team and a mission.

The participating companies benefit from the academic input, gaining new ideas and contacts. Please see the company cases under the "Workshop Files" of this page. 

Last but not least, the workshop is famous for the enthusiastic vibe of its participants and is a fun week for everyone involved.

If you are interested in working on a more interdisciplinary case, please also have a look at the hybrid Physics & Life Science with Industry workshop.
