Courses

You need to choose which courses you are planning to take this term. You should make your choice together with your advisor. You can attend courses at NCBJ, IChTJ, or other graduate schools in the Warsaw area.

Please note that courses in blocks 1,4,6 (see Program Requirements) are only given once every two years, so you should sign up for them as soon as they are offered.

Before the start of each term you will receive an email with instructions on how to notify us.

To enroll in one of the courses at the University of Warsaw Physics Department you need to ask the lecturer by email whether you can attend and then (in case of a positive answer) send this form by email to studfiz@fuw.edu.pl . You need to use your @ncbj.gov.pl email address for this.
