• quantum matter and radiation
• nuclear and particle physics 

Much of what you learn will relate to research that our staff carry out in industry.

Increased employability skills

At the University of Dundee, our contributions to modern science and technology are profound. We paved the way for the creation of LCD screens in the 70s and 80s. Additionally, we've played a key role in building optical diagnostic devices for CERN. 

Throughout your studies, you'll have the chance to apply for internships. Past students have secured placements at: 

• CERN
• Coherent
• Lockheed Martin
• Leonardo
