Physics with Biophysics, MPhys (Hons), with study abroad

The University of Exeter's MPhys in Physics with Biophysics programme provides a robust foundation in modern physics while cultivating professional skills to prepare you for a career as a physicist. Our Physics with Biophysics degrees emphasize core mainstream physics alongside a balanced exploration of biophysical applications, ranging from the physical principles of biological systems to imaging techniques. Fully accredited by the Institute of Physics, these programmes follow a structured skills development pathway from day one through the entire degree. Progressively, you will master classical physics, quantum mechanics, thermodynamics, relativity, solid-state physics, and other key areas of contemporary physics. Concurrently, our tailored curriculum will equip you with essential, employable competencies, including experimental physics, data analysis, critical thinking, problem-solving, science communication, and scientific programming.The MPhys offers an excellent chance to specialize in a biophysics research topic aligned with departmental expertise. In Stages 3 and 4, you will engage in a collaborative, open-ended biophysics project under supervision from a department researcher, gaining hands-on insight into modern research practices and honing your skills as a professional researcher.
