MPhys Physics
About this course
A higher-level accredited qualification which includes real-world projects in research and industry, this course is ideal for those planning to move into research or a career in physics and related fields. This integrated Master’s degree is the first step towards a Chartered Physicist status. It will suit those looking for an accredited course that leads to higher level education or a research role in physics, as well as providing a starting point for roles in science, finance, engineering and IT. Physics degrees at Durham offer a high level of flexibility. We offer four courses accredited by the Institute of Physics – MPhys qualifications in Physics, Physics and Astronomy, Theoretical Physics and BSc Physics – which follow the same core curriculum in the first year. Subject to the optional modules chosen, it is possible to switch to one of the other courses until the end of the second year. You can also apply for a one-year work placement or study abroad opportunity with one of our partner organisations, increasing the course from four to five years.
