The Physics MPhil at the University of Portsmouth invites you to contribute to the forefront of scientific discovery, building upon the institution's strong research output, where 100% of its physics research was judged world-leading or internationally excellent in REF 2021. This postgraduate research degree is ideal if you are driven to explore the fundamental interactions of matter and energy, from the sub-atomic to the cosmic. You will engage with critical areas such as quantum sensing, quantum computational supremacy, and the development of novel multicaloric technologies, preparing you to advance knowledge and drive innovation in physics.
This MPhil is studied full-time on campus over two years, offering you the chance to immerse yourself in a dynamic research environment. You will have the opportunity to develop your own research project, potentially focusing on areas like quantum optical networking, resilient pharmaceutical supply chains, or data-driven spatial models, under the guidance of experienced academics. Alternatively, you can explore funded projects or submit your own unique research idea. You will graduate with advanced research skills and a significant contribution to the field, ready for careers in academia, R&D, or specialised scientific industries.
