Overview

Acoustical Engineering with Industrial Placement Year is offered widely in the UK, so the useful comparison is between departments rather than between countries. It is a three year undergraduate degree, with the specialism widening as you move through the years.

Teaching in Physics is offered as a three year BSc or a four year integrated masters, and the longer route is the usual step towards research.

The lowest English requirement we hold on this course is IELTS 6.5, and departments asking more than that usually expect a stronger academic record too.

Applications open around a year ahead of the intake. Getting the documents together early is what keeps the September date realistic.

Roles graduates go into

  • Research scientist, after a doctorate
  • Data scientist or quantitative analyst
  • Systems or instrumentation engineer
  • Software engineer
  • Medical physicist, after training
  • Physics teacher, with a teaching qualification

Where they work

  • Technology and engineering companies
  • Finance and trading firms
  • Defence, aerospace and national laboratories
  • NHS medical physics
  • Schools and universities
After the course

A doctorate for research, the NHS Scientist Training Programme for medical physics, or a PGCE for teaching.
