Physics - MSci (Hons)

University of Nottingham

We have a proud history of learning and innovation. Research undertaken within the School of Physics and Astronomy, by Professor Sir Peter Mansfield, was recognised with a 2003 Nobel Prize for the invention of Magnetic Resonance Imaging body scanners. This technology has already helped more than half a billion people worldwide. More recently, our use of quantum technologies to understand how the brain works is changing the way that neurological conditions are detected and treated.Our research activities cover cutting-edge topics ranging from probing quantum mechanics at ultralow temperatures to understanding the largest structures in the Universe. We prepare you for life after university - we have an international Work Experience Showcase, which is an opportunity for you to find out about work experience, and our Faculty of Science Careers Team provides lifelong careers support, expert advice and guidance, individual appointments and help with CVs and job applications.**Why choose this course?**- Research project - supervised by one or more academic staff members- Specialise - in a range of options reflecting our expertise, from quantum devices to cosmology- 98% - of our research is classed as ‘world-leading’ (4*) or ‘internationally excellent’ (3*) according to the Research Excellence Framework 2021- Accredited - by the Institute of Physics
