Students initially enrol on the BSc course.
Students performing well over the first two years areoffered the opportunity to transfer to the MSci route. Year two semester one Physical properties of materials Physical characterisation techniques are essential in the development of new materials and the understanding of existing ones. The physical properties of a material dictate the choice of material for a particular product or purpose. Develops understanding of the quantum theory of angular momentum, coupling of angular momenta and atomic spectra. A practical industrial placement is an essential and important part of the sandwich course structure.
