How can atomic nuclei provide us with energy, help us monitor the environment, benefit medicine and more? Our Nuclear Science and Radiation Protection MSc course offers an in-depth understanding of nuclear science and radiation protection. Its significant emphasis on practical applications allows students to connect theoretical concepts with real-world industry scenarios.
Our academics are part of the following groups, which house the largest academic nuclear physics research hub in the UK:
There are generous external funding opportunities available for students on this course. This includes the IAEA Marie Sklodowska-Curie Fellowship Programme, which aims to help increase the number of women in the nuclear field, and the Bursary Scheme offered by The Nuclear Industry Benevolent Fund.
A minimum of a 2:2 UK honours degree in chemistry, engineering, environmental sciences, physics, radiography or radiological science, or a recognised equivalent international qualification.
We'll also consider relevant work experience if you don't meet these requirements.
