In theÊChemical Physics with a Year in Industry at University of East Anglia you will develop your practical expertise in lab classes, which will introduce you to many pieces of complex instrumentation and specialist equipment. Your third year will be spent on an industrial placement, so you will graduate with invaluable experience and industry links.

We offer a distinctive and integrated approach to Chemical Physics by delivering the chemistry and physics teaching for this degree programme within a single department. As an internationally recognized centre of interdisciplinary research, the School provides a richly research-led context for state of the art teaching.

Chemical Physics has been an integral part of, and a major research theme in, the School since its foundation. All who teach on this degree course are professional research-active chemists and physicists. During your studies, you will acquire a broad understanding of molecular science with an increasing focus on its interface with physics. Modules include core chemistry, which runs alongside an extensive grounding in appropriate mathematical techniques and relevant physics - ranging from atomic interactions right through to relativity.

Chemical Physics is an exciting and intellectually challenging area and you will be introduced to topics that reflect its full scope, such as the fabrication and properties of nanoparticles, laser systems and their applications, microsensors, computational modelling and photonics.
