Physics is simply the study of nature. It aspires to give answers to the questions that cry out for explanation. The Physics MSc programme will allow students to explore and expand their understanding of the world, equipping them to address the challenges that society faces.
The Department of Physics is home to inspirational research activity and excellent teaching. Its research spans the breadth of modern physics and is supported by advanced facilities. The University of Surrey collaborates with a variety of partners across the academic, public and industry communities, including the National Physical Laboratory.
The Physics MSc programme is flexible and allows students to tailor their studies by selecting modules from a wide range of fundamental and applied physics topics. The application-focused modules are co-taught by practitioners in public service and industry to ensure students gain workplace-relevant insight. In addition to this, an 11-week dissertation project will give learners the opportunity to apply their new knowledge and skills to a project relevant to pioneering research. Many of these are undertaken in collaboration with leading industry partners.
As a graduate of this course, students will have the skills and knowledge to work in a range of sectors on an international scale, including the nuclear and medical sectors, and higher education. Previous graduates have gone on to work for CERN, Diamond Microwave Devices Ltd, NHS, Scottish Environment Protection Agency, UK Atomic Energy Agency and organizations in the education sector such as Sultan Qaboos University, University College London, University of Nottingham and University of Umm Al-Qura.
