L2 - Physics
The Licence de Physique is a three-year course which constitutes the first stage of higher education. It is accessible to students with a scientific baccalaureate and allows them to acquire fundamental knowledge in general, theoretical and experimental physics, from classical physics to modern physics, but also in mathematics and computer programming with a progressive specialization in L3 towards Fundamental Physics or Physics and its Applications. The CUPGE Physics and Mathematics program (Cycle Universitaire Préparatoire aux Grandes Écoles) from L1 to L3 offers an in-depth bi-disciplinary training. A brief presentation of the different courses of the Physics License can be downloaded here : Presentation of the Physics License.

Admission
Conditions of access
Access to the second year is open to candidates with 60 Bachelor's degree credits or after validation of a diploma in the corresponding field. For example, CPGE specialties MPSI, PCSI, PTSI or DUT Mesures Physiques, PASS with a Science minor... Students with other degrees may apply. Their file will be examined by the pedagogical admissions committee.
Finally, some UM students in reorientation have access by right to the L2 Physics subject to having validated the 60 ECTS of L1 (ex. CPGE, PASS).
How to register
Applications for admission to the L2 Physics program must be made via the online application eCandidat. For foreign students outside the EU, depending on their nationality of origin, the application file may be processed through the CampusFrance system.

Physics Degree Opportunities for PASS Students
The Bachelor of Physics aims at providing students with the mastery of fundamental knowledge ranging from classical physics to modern physics. It is based on a theoretical and experimental approach offering a progressive specialization via the two courses Fundamental Physics and Physics and Applications in L3. It also allows students to enter engineering schools at the end of the L2 or L3.
The primary vocation of the training is the pursuit of studies in Master of Physics in France or abroad. The Master Fundamental Physics and Applications of Montpellier proposes 8 courses covering many fields of Physics and its interfaces with in particular the course Physics of Living Matter which aims at opportunities in fundamental research, the diagnostic and biomedical industries, imaging platforms and biotechnologies.
It is also possible to integrate the course Biomedical Physics (PhyMed) of the Master's degree in Science and Digital Health, which is a transdisciplinary course in Science and Health. The opportunities are mainly in technology companies, in consulting and IT service companies and with health actors. A presentation of this course can be downloaded here.
