Bachelor of Science (Hons) in Geophysics (Physics) with Study abroad

Program Overview

Discover how planet Earth works and how we use physics to image its static and dynamic subsurface, from inner core to crust.

This programme provides training in the principles and practice of geophysics with an emphasis on pure and practical physics. High-level training is given in geophysics with supporting physics, providing classical physics training to second year university level, and includes university training in geoscience and mathematics. This degree opens up a range of careers in geoscience. The programme is particularly strong for careers in geophysical data analysis, and research areas related to global geophysics and planetary science.Transfer to a Physics degree is possible up to the end of Year One.

The programme will cover core topics in physics, geophysics, geoscience and mathematics, plus a choice of advanced modules in geophysics. Major features include training in practical geophysics, exploration geophysics (particularly seismology), planetary-scale geophysics and geophysical inverse theory.

You will work within one of our research groups to undertake a significant geophysical research project in your final year. This provides excellent training in research methodology for an academic or industrial research career.

As part of your degree programme you may have the opportunity to study abroad. Studying abroad has huge personal and academic benefits, as well as giving you a head start in the graduate job market. Current opportunities for Ecology and Marine Biology, and Environmental Science students include a number of our worldwide exchange partnerships including Australia, Sweden and Canada. All Ecology and Marine Biology students undertake an independent study abroad visit. Earth Science students on the F601 and FF68 programmes can apply to spend a semester at partner universities in Australia and New Zealand. Most of our Earth Sciences field courses are based abroad and many students choose to carry out their independent project work abroad. Ocean Sciences students can currently apply to study abroad with partner universities in Canada, North America and Australia.
