The PhD in Physics programme aims to provide top-flight scientific and technological training for professionals and academics to be able to face and solve large-scale problems and provide original contributions to knowledge and new technologies in different fields of physics with a multidisciplinary perspective.

The supervising centres behind this programme are the Department of Physics at the University of the Balearic Islands (UIB), the Institute for Cross-Disciplinary Physics and Complex Systems (IFISC) and the Mediterranean Institute for Advanced Studies (IMEDEA). The IFISC and IMEDEA are joint research centres of the Spanish National Research Council (CSIC) and the UIB.

The programme centres around six areas of research where the supervising centres have gained accredited international prestige: 1) Relativity and Astrophysics; 2) Meteorology, Physical Oceanography and Climate Physics; 3) Materials Physics—Applications in Engineering; 4) Quantum Mechanics and Statistical Physics; 5) Cross-Disciplinary and Non-Linear Physics, and 6) Physics of Complex Systems.
The main activity of the programme is the production of a PhD thesis, although students will have to pass specific training activities aimed at rounding out their learning (attendance at research seminars, giving research seminars, attending tutorials, preparing scientific papers, preparing and writing an article in an indexed journal and, where possible, undertaking a research stay at another prestigious international centre in the field). Optionally, students may also participate in other cross-cutting activities organised by the UIB Doctoral School.
