MSc in Plasma Physics

MSc in Plasma Physics

The Master of Science course in Plasma Physics will admit its next intake in September 2011.

This is a largely web-based Master of Science course in Plasma Physics. It is designed to provide students with a knowledge and understanding of the principal facts, theories and experimental and computer simulation techniques of plasma physics through research-led teaching. While the QUB-enrolled students will be required to be in full-time study at QUB, the web-based teaching format is designed to allow the course and modules to be studied and delivered by students and staff at other locations in the UK and abroad. At QUB the web-based taught modules will be completed by face to face tutorials and short projects undertaken in the QUB research laboratories and a 15 week research project which can be undertaken at QUB or in a suitable research institution or industry.

Applications are now open, for entry in September 2011. All applications must be made electronically through the Queen's University application portal. Please ensure that you provide all the information requested, including transcripts, brief CV and proof of English language. Proof of English language knowledge is required (IELTS 6.0, TOEFL PBT 550 or iBT 80, or proof of equivalent working knowledge) for non-UK candidates.

Further information on the application process can be obtained from the University Admissions center.
