Physics with Space Science (MPhys)

Fuel your fascination for space and the technologies used to investigate it. On this MPhys Physics with Space Science degree you’ll explore a wide range of subjects, from the essentials of astronomy through to satellite design and space weather. You’ll also benefit from the latest research. With the global space market set to almost double by 2030, your skills will be in high demand. This degree will also prepare you for further study at PhD level. You’ll examine phenomena that can only be monitored from space, such as geomagnetic storms and solar wind, and combine your physics knowledge with space engineering principles to learn about spacecraft design. A Tenerife study trip is another high point. Working as part of an international and interdisciplinary team, you’ll design a space-based telescope and its instrumentation, and plan its launch. Throughout your degree you’ll study the core physics subjects of the Masters degree course, but with an emphasis on space science. The course is
