Hey!

I am a student from Denmark who would like to spend one year studying abroad. I study physics, primarily the fields of solid state physics, quantum mechanics and semiconductor physics. I will be begin studies in electronic and optoelectronic applications next year as well.

I would like to go to a university in England, and my question is where should I go? Which university do I choose if I want to do studies in the fields I mentioned above?

If you know of a university outside of England I'd like to know about that as well. The primary reason for going to England is that I already speak english.

Thanks
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Bristol have a very forward thinking electronics group (in the Engineering faculty).
 
Uppsala in Sweden is good hehe
 
You can try Université Joseph Fourier In Grenoble I in France, very good university, I'm applying over their to go for my master-2 degree.
The downside is obviously the language, so if you know french , check the site: http://www.ujf-grenoble.fr/
