Overview

Physics with Medical Applications (Undergraduate Masters) is taught at a number of UK universities, and the entry terms are set department by department rather than nationally. It is a three year undergraduate degree, with the specialism widening as you move through the years.

Teaching in Physics is assessed through practical reports as well as written papers, and the lab component is what makes the timetable full.

Tuition ranges from £22,400 to £26,600 a year depending on the department, which is a real difference over the length of the course.

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