Physics graduates have extensive knowledge in the field of physics based on the foundation of mathematical and natural sciences. Students can understand a rigorous description of physical phenomena, use modern measurement equipment and technical diagnostic systems. They can collect, process, and transmit information. They are fluent in English at the B2 level of the Council of Europe's Common European Framework of Reference for Languages, and a specialist language in the physical sciences. The graduates are prepared to work in laboratories: research, research and development and diagnostic laboratories, as well as in education - after finishing the teaching specialty, where they acquire full rights to teach physics after completing the second degree and obtaining a master's degree. They have the competence necessary to operate and supervise equipment that requires basic knowledge of physics. They can understand and apply in practice the acquired knowledge, formulate opinions and judgments and communicate. Physics graduates are well-prepared for a variety of career choices. The specificity of studies allows graduates to adapt to the conditions of today's labor market, coping in school, in a computer company, or a research or industrial laboratory.
Physics graduates with a specialization in computer physics are characterized by a very good knowledge of the basics of classical physics and modern physics. The knowledge of graduates is extended by the use of computer science in modern science, technology and industry. In the process of education, students learn to describe, model and perform computer simulations of physical phenomena, interpret, process and analyze data, and become familiar with the techniques of computer cooperation with research and measurement apparatus. During their education students learn about operating systems, basics of programming, object-oriented programming, creating websites and web services compliant with W3C standards, computer graphics, databases, numerical methods, algorithms and data structures, programming graphical user interfaces, network programming and techniques and methods of computer simulation of physical phenomena. Great emphasis is placed on practical skills, so specialized subjects in computer science are taught on the basis of computer laboratories supported by lectures. The program of studies in the specialty of computer physics is adapted to the requirements of today's rapidly developing job market. Graduates of this specialty are able to program in Python, work in Linux and Windows operating systems, solve complex problems and implement them in the form of program code, create professional websites based on databases, search and use ready-made solutions (libraries, modules) and working with documentation in English.
Physics graduates specializing in computer astrophysics are characterized by knowledge of physical processes occurring in the Universe combined with knowledge of modern computer techniques. Computer simulations of astrophysical processes and data analysis are the basis of specialized subjects. Graduates freely use computer tools and have extensive programming skills. Moreover, the acquired skills can be used for big data analysis.
Studying within this specialization, students learn about the most significant scientific discoveries in the field of physics. They learn the techniques of laboratory work and analysis of measurement results, in particular the cooperation of the computer with research and measurement equipment. The studies provide knowledge - in the field of physics, mathematics, measurement systems and laboratory work skills - appropriate to the requirements of the modern workplace. This includes modern methods of measurement, data acquisition, as well as modeling, simulation and analysis of measurement results. Graduates are well prepared for further graduate studies, whether in experimental, medical, computer or theoretical physics. They also have a good general background in chemistry and natural physics.
The aim of the physics of medicine specialization is to provide basic knowledge and skills necessary to work in healthcare institutions, development centers, or research institutions, as well as to continue education in the graduate degree programmes in the Medical Physics specialization. Graduates of the Medical Physics specialization have an extended knowledge of physical and physicochemical processes occurring in living organisms. They know the basics of physics and mathematical modeling necessary to understand the operation of medical equipment used in medical diagnostics and therapies. They have theoretical and practical knowledge (as a result practice at the University Hospital) about medical imaging using techniques such as X-ray, CT, MRI, and ultrasound. They know the basics of electrocardiography, electroencephalography, and electromyography, and can put on EKG and EEG. Additionally, to meet current job market requirements, graduates learn a wide range of techniques related to data analysis used in biomedical sciences.
Graduates of the teaching physics specialization are characterized by a very good knowledge of the fundamentals of classical physics and modern physics. The knowledge of graduates of this specialization is extended by issues related to the work of teachers, primarily in elementary school. In the process of education, students acquainted with psychological and pedagogical issues and didactics of physics. Great emphasis is placed on practical skills that will allow the graduate to carry out didactic and educational tasks set in the work of a teacher. Therefore, in the course of education, some subjects are carried out in the form of internships, which take place in elementary schools. The study program for the specialty of teaching physics is adapted to the requirements of the Ministry of Education and Science for candidates for the teaching profession.

Physics graduates acquire competencies that allow them to further choose various careers. The specificity of studies makes graduates able to adapt to the conditions of today's job market, coping in a research or industrial laboratory, in a computer company or at school. Often physicists can be found in jobs that are not directly related to physics, such as banks, large public administration units or consulting firms. This proves the versatility and openness of physics education, developing the ability to analyze a variety of problems, often using advanced statistical techniques. This makes it possible to reduce complex issues to their essential components, properly diagnose the relationships between them, and finally find solutions to the problems.
