MPhys (Hons) Physics (with a year in industry)

The MPhys Physics with Industry course from the University of York is a four-year undergraduate program that provides students with an in-depth understanding of fundamental physics, combined with practical experience in industry. This course prepares students to apply physical principles and techniques to real-world problems, delivering a well-rounded knowledge of physics.Course Content: The curriculum puts a strong emphasis on building practical skills and knowledge with exposure to real-world industrial experience. The first two years follow the structure of the BSc Physics course, covering fundamental physics principles. Year three expands this set of principles, exploring more complex concepts and applications, and students spend the fourth year on industrial placement, conducting a project directly relevant to a business.Key Modules: Key topics of study throughout the course include Classical Mechanics, Fields & Waves, Quantum Mechanics, Thermal Physics, Electromagnetism, Statistical Mechanics, Solid State Physics, Nuclear Physics and Particle Physics.Accreditations: The MPhys Physics with Industry course is accredited by the Institute of Physics (IOP). Future Careers: Graduates are trained to work in a range of sectors including technology industries, healthcare, research & development, education, finance, software development and consultancy.
