Physics with Quantum Technology, BSc (Hons)

The BSc in Physics with Quantum Technology at the University of Exeter provides a strong foundation in modern physics, while fostering professional skills and preparing students for careers in the field. The program emphasizes core mainstream physics alongside practical and technological applications of quantum physics. Fully accredited by the Institute of Physics, it follows a structured skills development pathway from day one through the entire degree. Students progressively build expertise in classical physics, quantum mechanics, thermodynamics, relativity, solid-state physics, and other key areas. Concurrently, the curriculum enhances employable skills such as experimental physics, data analysis, critical thinking, problem-solving, science communication, and scientific programming.As physics is a collaborative discipline, the final year features extensive open-ended project work. BSc students complete two one-term extended projects, which can be experimental or theoretical. These opportunities include team-based efforts addressing real-world challenges, along with developing skills to communicate complex investigation results to diverse audiences in varied formats.
