Study Level

Undergraduate

Nuclear Science and Technology degree graduates have a very strong background in physics as well as specialist theoretical, practical and programming skills in nuclear radiation processes that are necessary to find employment in research laboratories or related nuclear industries. The expansion in the uranium mining industry and the monitoring of mid- and high-level radioactive storage facilities both require specific expertise. Nuclear Science and Technology is fundamental to those with a career as a health physicist, nuclear technician or radiation specialist. All subjects include a major practical component to complement and reinforce what you learn in lectures, and ensure you gain hands-on skills that prepare you for real-life activities in your future career. You will learn from academics that are internationally recognised in many fields of physics research including medical radiation physics, solid state physics, photonics and education.
