Physics with Quantum Computing - MPhys

Why choose this course Quantum technologies harness the unusual features of the quantum world to perform tasks that are difficult with conventional technologies alone. These courses cover the full spectrum of this exciting and rapidly developing field – from lasers and photonics to quantum physics, quantum information and quantum computing. There are two unique aspects of both our courses: Get industry-ready and gain the skills employers want with our award-winning [Professional Training placements](https:www.surrey.ac.ukprofessional-training-placements): With the BSc Physics with Quantum Computing degree, you have the option to take a paid Professional Training placement in industry, giving you invaluable hands-on experience to enhance your employability. Our students have placed all over the world including the NPL (UK), CERN (Switzerland) and TRIUMF (Canada). On our MPhys, you’ll take a year-long, masters-level integrated research placement. This can be in one of our world-leading research groups or at one of our international partner institutions. Our focus on undergraduate research and innovation: All undergraduates have the opportunity to apply for paid 8-10 week summer research placements in our research groups and those of our South East Physics Network partners. We offer in-house ‘research and innovation’ and ‘enterprise’ grants that students can apply for to fund a research placement, attend a conference or develop a new business idea. We’re preparing you for the future by integrating AI into every course, building digital skills, confidence and creativity that employers value in tomorrow’s workplace. What you will study Our physics and quantum computing courses combine elements of traditional physics with the study of quantum technologies, providing students with the ideal foundation to start a career in this emerging field. You’ll learn about existing quantum technologies, such as the devices used to transmit internet data and those behind the lasers in Blu-ray players. During your first year, you can switch between any of our specialist physics courses. You can apply to study for either a BSc or an MPhys. The latter is a direct route to a masters qualification, known as an [integrated masters](https:www.surrey.ac.ukundergraduate-studyintegrated-masters). On an MPhys, you’ll spend a year doing integrated research before returning for your final masters-level modules.
