Theres a strong focus on practicals and laboratory-based techniques.The MSc in Radiometrics will teach you a broad range of detector technologies for measuring ionising radiation that are widely used in nuclear-related industries. It has a strong emphasis on practical laboratory skills using the state-of-the art equipment in our teaching laboratories, complementing the theoretical knowledge and advanced modelling skills you will learn. Many modules are also taken by participants from industry as part of their Continuing Professional Development, so you will have opportunities to learn first hand about what its like to work at some of the UKs leading employers in the sector.The project during the summer will give you a chance to conduct individual open-ended research under expert supervision.
