Description

Undergraduate degree programme Nuclear Science and Materials BSc H821

This unique course is designed to develop the skills and understanding required to prepare students for the Nuclear Sector. One of the major challenges the UK faces is reshaping how it generates electricity as there is a move away from fossil fuels. The Government are investing in the construction of a suite of new nuclear power stations which could deliver up to 40% of the UK’s electricity. There is a significant demand for graduates to work in this rapidly growing sector.

The University has over 50 years’ of experience in teaching the physics of nuclear reactors and associated research. There are very strong links with the nuclear industry who recruit strongly from our educational programmes. These courses are affiliated with the Birmingham Centre for Nuclear Education and Research.

The present course combines modules in core physics, mathematics and computing together with engineering principles and materials, so that students possess engineering skills but have a grasp of the fundamental science. The course is a joint programme between the School of Metallurgy and Materials and the School of Physics and Astronomy, with additional courses being delivered by Engineering Schools.

By the end of the course students will have a broad grasp of physics and engineering principles together with a detailed understanding of nuclear reactor physics, engineering and materials together with an understanding of nuclear science and nuclear radiation.
