Physics is a fundamental science but with far-reaching applications to other areas and a range of industries such as those focused on power, nuclear, electronics, IT, data-mining, telecommunications and medical diagnostics. As a physicist you could play a crucial role in designing and managing the global transition that must take place from a fossil-fuelled world to one powered by low-carbon and renewable energy.
Based on a solid foundational core of physics concepts and key expectations, as defined by the Institute of Physics (IoP) accreditation framework, you will apply these skills to the generation, transmission and storage of low-carbon power, engaging with frontier material informed by the interests of our world-class research teams.
