The Physics with Business Management degree programme provides a good grounding in physics coupled with a study of business management. The physics is of sufficient depth for it to be possible for you to pursue a higher degree in physics if you wish. This degree is ideal if you want a management career in a scientific based industry, but the range of expertise and knowledge gained will open up career prospects varying from scientific research through to general management.
The Physics with Business Management degree programme can be taken as a 3-year BSc, a 4-year BSc with a Year in Europe or as a 4-year MPhys.
