Schools Undergrad physics courses in European universities

AI Thread Summary
Rafid, a high school student from Bangladesh, is seeking English-taught undergraduate physics programs in Europe, specifically outside the UK. While exploring options in Sweden, he found that most universities offer courses in Swedish. Recommendations include checking the Bachelors Portal for various universities and looking into German institutions, which often have lower tuition fees. Notable mentions are Jacobs University in Bremen, which is private with high tuition (around 9,000 euros per semester) but offers scholarships, and the University of Oldenburg, a public university with approximately 1,000 euros per year in fees. The discussion emphasizes the affordability of German public universities compared to Sweden, especially with the introduction of tuition fees in Sweden. There is an expectation that a significant portion of students at Jacobs University receive scholarships, although specific numbers on availability are unclear.

Hi there,

I'm Rafid and I'm a highshool student from Bangladesh. I would like to pursue a physics major in my bachelors studies.

I have searched some universities in Sweden, all of which are great, but the language of instruction for all of them is Swedish. Are there any good universities in Europe (other than UK) which offer undergrad physics courses in English?

You can try : http://www.bachelorsportal.eu (use the advanced search, bare in mind it need not be comprehensive)

and to look to English programmes in Germany:

There is also Jacobs university (Bremen, Germany, high tuition fees since its a private university, most students have scholarships, its not so well known): http://www.jacobs-university.de

and the university of Oldenburg (1000eur per year, public university):

If you would like to consider learning a new language, Germany has much to offer with little tuition fees (~1000eur per year in public universities) compared to elsewhere (Sweden has already introduced tuition fees starting from this year, its a high number).

Yes, I'm aware of the fact that Jacob's University of Bremen offer undergrad physics course in English. But education is very expensive. As far as I know, tuition is 9,000 euros per semester. How often do they offer scholarships?

I am have no idea about the number, but I do expect that 70% of the students at least have scholarships.
 
Hey, I am Andreas from Germany. I am currently 35 years old and I want to relearn math and physics. This is not one of these regular questions when it comes to this matter. So... I am very realistic about it. I know that there are severe contraints when it comes to selfstudy compared to a regular school and/or university (structure, peers, teachers, learning groups, tests, access to papers and so on) . I will never get a job in this field and I will never be taken serious by "real"...
Yesterday, 9/5/2025, when I was surfing, I found an article The Schwarzschild solution contains three problems, which can be easily solved - Journal of King Saud University - Science ABUNDANCE ESTIMATION IN AN ARID ENVIRONMENT https://jksus.org/the-schwarzschild-solution-contains-three-problems-which-can-be-easily-solved/ that has the derivation of a line element as a corrected version of the Schwarzschild solution to Einstein’s field equation.
