Welcome to the International Students section of our website.

The Physics Department is in the centre of Glasgow, the largest and liveliest city in Scotland, a country of outstanding scientific traditions and natural beauty. We are one of the most successful Departments of Physics in the UK at attracting funds for research and one of the largest in Scotland. Our students enjoy friendly teaching, great sport and recreation facilities and (for those whose first language is not English) a boost to their language skills. A number of undergraduate and postgraduate studentships are available for the most qualified applicants.

International students can choose from three types of degree, depending on their qualifications:

  • MPhys - Students without a recognised University degree who want to study in Scotland (2 to 5 years depending on previous studies)
  • MSc - Students with a recognised University degree who want to improve their skills and job prospects specialising in an advanced topic and studying in Scotland (1 year)
  • PhD - Students with a recognized University degree who want to become researchers in Academia or Industry (3 to 4 years)

A Physics degree from Strathclyde University is an excellent qualification and provides many excellent opportunities to further your career.
