This course combines modules in physics, maths and computing with materials, thermal and electrical engineering. Students start by being based largely in the School of Physics and Astronomy in the first year transitioning to the School of Metallurgy and Materials in later years. This course has been designed to ensure that you have the theoretical foundations necessary to conduct further research in this growing area, or to obtain a graduate role in a range of disciplines from reactor management to radiation safety. By the end of the course students will have a broad grasp of physics and engineering principles together with a detailed understanding of nuclear reactor physics, engineering and materials together with an understanding of nuclear science and nuclear radiation.
