Physics with Theoretical Physics Imperial

Overview

As the Physics with Theoretical Physics MSci course offered at Imperial progresses you will have greater flexibility to specialise, with a wide choice of theoretical optional modules in areas such as group theory, general relativity and quantum field theory.

Quick Facts:

• This core programme provides you with a good grounding in physics, mathematics and experimental methods, and prepares you for advanced study.
• You will also have the opportunity to build on the BSc course with an additional year of Master's level study, and the chance to complete a substantial project on a theoretical physics topic in one of our research groups.
• As a Physics graduate from the College, you will be highly sought after by employers. Many of our graduates go on to study a higher degree – either a Master’s degree, or straight to a PhD and a career in academic research.
• Outside academia, our Physics graduates are sought after by a wide range of employers – from the electronics industry where they help design next-generation technologies, to the astrophysics and space technology industry where they’re needed to analyse space objects.
