Business Studies bridges science and business by focusing on areas such as technology management, innovation, entrepreneurship, operations and decision-making. In this master's specialisation you combine Physics research with Business Studies. You will learn about analytical frameworks and skills for managerial decision-making. The emphasis of the business specialisation is on the application of these frameworks and skills in the context of R&D-intensive organisations. After completion, you have obtained the necessary knowledge and skills to take on managerial responsibilities in your work.

Do you pursue a management career in industry from a physics research perspective? Do you want to learn all about technology commercialization and business development? Then, Physics and Business Studies is the master's specialisation of choice for you. It enables you to broaden your scope outside physics research. The specialisation offers training that is analytically rigorous and connected to practice through class discussions based on real-life business cases, company visits, guest speakers, and an internship experience.

objectives

The specialisation teaches you analytical frameworks and skills for managerial decision making. Internships help you decide whether you want to choose a career in industry or Physics research.
The Physics component of the Business Studies specialisation centres on a research project in one of the research groups of the Leiden Institute of Physics (LION), including a Master's thesis and an oral presentation, as well as courses selected in correspondence with the research topic. This may include non-physics courses. Within the business component you can choose from two tracks:

* The Management track is for students who consider employment opportunities in industry, and who are looking to acquire knowledge of business principles and training in managerial skills. The track provides an introduction to general management theory and practice.
* The New Technology Ventures track is for students interested in the process of creating and managing novel technology-based businesses.

Beroepsperspectief / arbeidsmarkt

There are lots of opportunities. Some will choose to do a PhD or become a researcher in industry, and switch to management and (starting their own) business later in their career. Others will prefer jobs which draw upon both their science background and their aptitude for business, e.g. as patent lawyer, product manager, business developer, etc. Then there are graduates who exploit their research and analytical skills by entering into areas like strategy consulting and finance.
