Course summary
What this course is about
UCAS code: F323
Here's what University of Bristol says about its Chemical Physics with Industrial Experience course.
Join a University ranked #1 in the UK for Chemistry research and in the UK for top five for Physics research (THE analysis of REF 2021) with an excellent reputation for teaching and learning.
This four-year MSci course is for those considering scientific careers that will make direct use of their subject-specific knowledge and skills. The first and second years of this course are identical to MSci Chemical Physics but during year three you will spend 12 months on a placement as a paid employee in a company.
You will focus on areas at the interface between chemistry and physics, emphasising cross-disciplinary topics such as materials science and nanoscience,
As well as lectures and practical classes, small-group tutorials and workshops help develop your understanding of challenging and exciting concepts. Practical labs in both chemistry and physics help develop experimental techniques, computational modelling, and programming skills needed in the final year for conducting a research project with a research team.
Our graduates have an excellent record of employment across a range of industries. This is a testament to the value that employers place on these skills.

Variety of different societies offered. Lots of polls etc. sent out so seemed to have an interest in student voices. Subsidised food :)

Excellent night life + gay scene. Also lots of excellent art events (markets, little arthouse cinemas, museums) if you're so inclined. Not crazy-busy, for a city.

Low-income, and so was offered a lot of additional assistance. Still, Bristol is quite an expensive place to live, so do be wary.

Welfare services were fantastic with me, fast-tracked my transfer to Student Health Services and got me a same-day appointment. Tutors and lecturers have also, as mentioned, been very supportive and down-to-earth, even in their criticisms.

Incredibly easy to reserve, borrow, & auto-renew books through the library system. Some 24-hour libraries too, which...

Decently-structured timetable: not too overwhelming, but enough things on each day to justify commuting. Had enough time to get to each location. Feedback was generally very good---better on the maths side I would say, however my first philosophy essay received some incredibly thorough feedback. Lec...

University of Bristol open days
Are you thinking of applying to this university?
Before you do, it's a good idea to go to an open day. You can have a good look around campus, getting a better idea of what it's like to study there. You'll meet current students and staff and get the chance to ask them questions.
Universities will list upcoming open days on their websites. Most will also have virtual open days; these are a great alternative if you really can't get there in person. For tips on preparing for open days, check the advice section here on The Uni Guide.
