Whether you want to advance your understanding of the topics you found most interesting during your undergraduate studies or gain the skills needed to achieve your goals, you’ll be able to focus on the topics that are most important to you through a range of optional modules. You’ll have the opportunity to advance your understanding of topics such as particle physics, dark matter, quantum mechanics and astrobiology.
One of the biggest parts of your degree is a year-long research project. You’ll investigate an important issue or problem in an astrophysics research area of your choice, working under the supervision of an active researcher who is an expert in your chosen area. You’ll review research literature, design and conduct research using qualitative and quantitative research techniques, and handle and analyse data. You’ll also gain experience communicating your findings verbally and in writing.
Through this MSc, you’ll develop expertise in both the technical skills and specialist knowledge required for a successful career in astrophysics. You’ll gain the advanced knowledge needed to pursue a career in research, either at a top university or a research facility. You'll also master the problem-solving and analysis skills that employers value in other fields, including software and computing, data science, or consultancy.
Minimum 2:1 undergraduate honours degree in Physics or any degree where Physics is a named component, with relevant modules.
