The faculty-common goals and rules of the post-graduate studies are described in a general study plan.  

Postgraduate studies are organized into subjects, which are divided into specializations. For each specialization there is a study plan, which describes its specific details and a postgraduate-study responsible professor, who has a general quality responsibility. At the department postgraduate studies are carried out in the following specializations:

• Astronomy (Nikolai Piskunov) 
• Astrophysics  (Nikolai Piskunov) 
• Physics: Astrophysics (Nikolai Piskunov)  
• Atomic, molecular and condensed matter physics (Hans Siegbahn) 
• Biophysics (Hans Siegbahn) 
• Elementary particle physics (Tord Ekelöf) 
• Physics Education Research (Cedric Linder) 
• Ion physics (Göran Possnert)
• Nuclear physics (Tord Johansson) 
• Space and plasma physics (Mats André) 
• Theoretical physics (Ulf Lindström)
• Applied nuclear physics (Ane Håkansson)
