Physics with International Experience Msci (Hon) Msci (Hon) Msci (Hon)

Join a University ranked in the UK top five for Physics research (THE analysis of REF 2021) with an excellent reputation for teaching and learning.<br/><br/>Physics is an inherently international activity. It is carried out by scientists in institutions across the world, who sometimes compete but often collaborate. Physics with International Experience will give you an early introduction to this key aspect of the discipline.<br/><br/>Our course offers the chance to combine in-depth training as a physicist with the experience of living overseas. This course follows the structure of the MSci Physics degree, but you will spend your third year at a partner university, either studying or working as a researcher. The programme will be agreed with a tutor at Bristol and the working language will be English.<br/><br/>During your time abroad, you will spend most of your time taking advantage of opportunities available locally. This may mean carrying out a full-time research project as part of a research team at your host university. Previous students have studied astrophysics in Canada, nanophysics in Brazil, and particle physics in the US.<br/><br/>Alternatively, you can take taught courses through Bristols Global Opportunities programme. This means that you will continue to study core physics via distance learning, in readiness for returning to Bristol for your final year.<br/><br/>In your final year, you will undertake a major project, working in a research group with a staff member. Our students final-year projects address questions at the frontier of our research fields. The most successful have been published in scientific journals.<br/><br/>Join our friendly department with a very active, award-winning student society. We support you to develop a broad range of experimental, theoretical and analytical skills, as well as to develop your understanding of how to apply your skills more widely. These are vital for a career in research or industry.<br/><br/>Our physics graduates have an excellent record of employment post-study. This is a testament to the value that employers place on the transferable skills that you will gain on this course.<br/><br/>Think Big bursaries (https://www.bristol.ac.uk/students/support/finances/scholarships/think-big-ug-science-bursaries/) of £3,000 are available to support first-year international undergraduate students in this subject area.
