Physics underpins the fundamental laws that govern everything from the smallest particles to the vast universe around us, and serves as the toolkit for modern engineering and the physical sciences. At Loughborough, you will study the foundational principles of physics while developing your problem-solving, experimental, mathematical, and computational skills which are valued in a wide range of workplaces and careers. 

This degree combines core physics and astrophysics with optional modules that take advantage of Loughborough’s research strengths in quantum physics, modern photonics, condensed matter, the physics of materials, statistical physics, medical physics and neuromorphic computing.

Our MPhys programmes offer a competitive edge in the job market due to their advanced content, highlighting commitment and specialised knowledge. The MPhys programmes include an extended research project, allowing deep exploration and potential contributions to human knowledge. For careers needing deep physics understanding and research capability, an MPhys bolsters prospects. While a BSc partially meets Chartered Physicist and Chartered Scientist requirements, MPhys fully satisfies them.
