Overview

In the MPhys in Physics at the University of Strathclyde, you’ll focus your studies on a specific area, such as theoretical and computational physics, plasma physics or laser physics. You’ll also undertake a project, supervised by a member of staff in their research labs.

There is a strong emphasis on laboratory work, which will help you develop a sound understanding of experimental physics and instrumentation.

You’ll complete your laboratory work training with a research project carried out in an up-to-date research lab, attached to one of the department’s research groups. This allows you to benefit from our lively and diverse research environment.

Careers

Throughout the course, you’ll develop the key skills that will make you a successful physicist and maximise your career options.

Our graduates can be found working anywhere from research and development to production and management in every field of science and industry. Some find employment as medical physicists and environmental physicists, others as petroleum engineers, patent officers as well as research scientists.
