Course Overview

In your third year, you can do a ten-week group research project with one of our industrial partners, such as Airbus Defence and Space, Jorin Ltd., Domino Printing, or Weatherford International. You will gain invaluable project, budget, and team management experience working in a professional environment on an actual project.

You can gain first-hand experience in physics education through a final-year mentoring scheme with physics teachers in local schools, working for half a day a week over one semester.

We offer a small number of Summer Research Placements: six weeks of paid employment working with the research groups within the School of Physics and Astronomy. These placements provide excellent experience if you want to pursue a career in academic or industrial research.

Our dedicated Careers Tutor can provide information, advice, and guidance on the graduate job application process.
