About this course

The four year MPhys course is designed for those seeking to develop thorough skills as an independent physicist. It features further in-depth study and significant project work. Students may have the opportunity to contribute to researching and writing an academic paper.

Physics graduates are well-placed for careers in research and development, process control, and regulatory roles in organisations around the world. Some may go on to roles in education or further study at postgraduate level. Additionally, transferable skills such as communications, problem-solving, and decision-making, which students are expected to develop throughout their studies, are valuable in many spheres of employment.
