King's College London

Our Physics MSci provides a robust foundation in both experimental and theoretical physics. You'll explore topics such as relativity, quantum mechanics, fields and waves, electromagnetism and nuclear physics. You’ll also be trained in key analytical and practical skills such as problem-solving, creative thinking, teamwork, and data analysis, preparing you for a wide-range of future-facing careers.

You'll join a friendly and supportive department, learning from internationally renowned scientists who deliver outstanding research-led and innovative teaching.

In your first two years, you'll sample core physics fields and develop experimental techniques through integrated lab work. In the third year, you’ll apply this knowledge and skills to complex research or industry-inspired problems, enabling you to undertake novel research and develop crucial employability skills.

In your final year, you will work on a research project aligned to one of our research groups and experience the excitement of research through supervised projects.

You also have the opportunity to transfer to the Study Abroad pathway and spend an additional year at a partner institution before returning to King’s to complete your studies. This depends on you reaching a certain grade average and being accepted by a partner university.
