Course info

This four-year programme offers an outstanding education in a thriving field of science and engineering. You will gain a strong foundation in core physics as well as specialist knowledge of how physics is applied to medicine which will prepare you for a wide variety of careers inside and outside medical physics, including those in healthcare, scientific research and industry. We offer the option of studying a three-year Physics with Medical Physics BSc or a more in-depth four-year Medical Physics MSci programme. The first two years of study for both programmes are identical and transfer between the two is possible up to the end of the second year. We advise applying for the MSci initially which makes it easier to defer your decision. These courses take place partly in the UCL Medical Physic and Biomedical Engineering (MPBE) department, and partly in the UCL Physics and Astronomy (P&A) department, giving you an unique opportunity to learn from and within two research-intensive and World-leading departments.
