This course deepen your understanding of reactor physics and get set for a career in the growing nuclear industry. From radiation transport to reactor systems and fusion, you’ll study a broad range of physics and engineering topics that will open up a world of opportunities. You’ll also take part in field trips, including a day at a training reactor. You'll be taught by experts and benefit from our extensive links into industry and regulators, both in the UK and internationally. Our course launched in 1956, with the construction of Britain’s first nuclear reactor. We’ve continually evolved to keep pace with this increasingly sophisticated field so you’ll benefit from a well-established programme that will expand your horizons.
Students should hold a 2:1 Honours degree in a relevant subject, such as Physics, Engineering, Mathematics, or any other Physical Science discipline.
