Physics with a Year Abroad MPhys

Physics gives you the tools to understand our world at a fundamental level, from the smallest sub-atomic particles to the large-scale structure of the universe. You'll discover the world of quantum mechanics, relativity, electromagnetism and condensed matter and learn how physics enables breakthroughs in areas from materials science to quantum computing and medical imaging.

Our four-year integrated Master's programme (MPhys) allows you to hone the skills needed for research and technical roles in industry, or as a preparation for a PhD. You'll deepen your knowledge with specialised taught modules and work with an academic to carry out a real, open-ended research project. 

Year Abroad

You'll have the opportunity to spend your third year studying abroad at one of our partner institutions. This provides a wealth of personal and professional benefits. You'll experience a different culture, establish international contacts, grow in self-confidence and enhance your employability.

In addition, you'll develop the transferable skills to open up a world of job opportunities, leading to careers in research, aeronautics, engineering, medical physics, defence, teaching, finance and data analytics.

If you don’t have a science background or don’t meet our entry requirements, you can take our foundation year.
