Physics (M06)

An integrated masters is an undergraduate degree that combines undergraduate and postgraduate study. Our Master of Physics (MPhys), provisionally accredited by the IOP (Institute of Physics), develops your knowledge and skills to explore the smallest and largest scales of the Universe. You’ll learn to objectively and quantitatively describe, analyse, test, and explain phenomena in our physical world and the wider Universe, applying experimental, observational and numerical methods and developing mathematical and programming skills. Choose a start that suits your knowledge and understanding, pick a route that meets your interests, and conclude with a project on physics, astrophysics or space science.

Key features of the course

• Choose from a standard, basic maths or advanced start, or to specialise in astrophysics with space science – whatever suits you best

• Gain mathematical and data-handling skills, plus apply models and analyse data using a modern programming language

• Develop investigative and laboratory skills using our state-of-the-art multi-award-winning OpenSTEM Labs

• Extend your understanding of core physics concepts and processes, and demonstrate your ability to conduct novel and exciting research

• Provisionally accredited by the Institute of Physics (IOP)
