Course summary

Our Physics MSci will give you a deep understanding of all the fundamental aspects of physics. In your final year, you will work on a research project aligned to one of our research groups and experience the excitement of research through supervised projects. For the first three years of the course, you will follow very similar modules to those taking our Physics BSc. This will give you an excellent grounding in the fundamental aspects of physics you will need for further study and research. In your final year you can choose modules from the Physics department, Mathematics department, or from another University of London college (Royal Holloway), and the MSci project will give you experience of a genuine large-scale research project. Problem solving and project work are important elements of this course, and you will learn teamwork, group organisation and the skills of oral and poster presentations. At King’s, all students on a taught programme are allocated a personal tutor who will play a key role in helping you to get the most out of your studies, providing support and encouragement for your time at university. Personal tutors provide you with the opportunity to periodically take stock of your learning, academic progress and general wellbeing as you progress through your studies, offering guidance on how to seek further support if you need it, and how to access the range of opportunities available to you as a King's student. This course is primarily taught at the King’s College London Strand Campus. Our Department is located on the 7th floor with views over the Thames to the London Eye and Westminster. This central location gives you easy access to major libraries and many leading societies including the Institute of Physics, as well as the extensive cultural and social offerings of one of the world’s most vibrant and dynamic cities.
