This broad and flexible course is designed to bring out the beauty and universality of physics. It will prepare you for a variety of careers across business, engineering, finance and management. Teaching is informed by the research in the department. For the final year project, you’ll work as a member of one of the research groups on a year-long project and explore some, as yet, not fully understood aspects of the area. There are also summer vacation studentships, which you can apply for. This four-year course should appeal most to you, if you intend to make direct use of your knowledge of physics after you graduate. Assessment is via end-of-year examinations, which make up about 70% of the year’s mark. Laboratory and project work, computing, and coursework associated with core modules, are assessed by final reports and oral presentations. Our graduates have gone on to work for organisations including: HSBC, BAE Systems, Rolls Royce, NHS, and IBM. Our graduates’ job roles include: Clinical Scientist Trainee, Research Scientist, Financial Analyst, and Data Analyst. Others have progressed into postgraduate study.
