Master of Earth Physics (MEarthPhys) - Geophysics and Meteorology (with Professional Placement) (K8T9)

The individual will be trained in fundamental physical principles and mathematical techniques of geophysics, combined with an appreciation of atmospheric processes and the techniques used to study them.

As a student in geophysics and meteorology, they will learn to apply their knowledge and skills to diverse fields.

For example: • Students will study the Earth's atmosphere, including its structure, thermodynamic processes, rain formation, radiation, and air pollution.

• Students will interpret weather systems and climate processes.

• Students will monitor the Earth's changing environment and climate.

• Students will map environmental pollution above and below ground.

• Students will measure rock and soil properties before civil engineering work.

• Students will be involved in carbon capture, energy storage, and management of water resources.

• Students will gain an understanding of the behavior of the Earth's deep interior.

• Students will gain an understanding of how the Earth and other planets have formed and changed over their lifetime.

By studying this degree, they will have the opportunity to learn from a wide range of experienced academics across a diverse range of Earth science disciplines. The research-led, industry-informed teaching ensures that their degree has real-world relevance and makes them highly sought after by employers.
