Gemma Dallas
MPhys Physics
“Not only do I have the skills and knowledge from my degree course, but I was made aware of the career paths previous alumni from my course had taken and introduced to a range of career opportunities I wouldn’t otherwise have known about.”
Connor MacDonald
MPhys Physics
“…being able to run real experiments in a lab that have been tested time and again through history or developing new strategies to discover something new is a truly extraordinary feeling.”
Eilidh Maclennan
MPhys Physics
“As a result of my internship, I've found that I really enjoy research in atomic physics. This internship has also resulted in successfully securing a PhD to start in a few months!”
Max Wells-Pestell
MSc Advanced Physics
“I knew that I was most interested in quantum computing, and Strathclyde is the only university that’s a member of all four quantum hubs in the UK. It’s also the only university with a neutral atom quantum computer in-house. That’s actually what I’m now working on for my PhD.”
Sam Templeton
BSc Physics with Teaching
“The Department of Physics' reputation for both teaching and research made it an obvious place to study.”
Amrutha Sankar
MSc Nanoscience
“Excellent classes and support by the faculty members helped me to understand the multidisciplinary aspects of Nanoscience very well. Professors spared no effort to make the classes interesting and innovative. Plus, the experimental facilities are world-class and can provide every opportunity to carry out excellent research.”
Kezhia Thomas
MSc Photonics
“I chose Strathclyde for its strong reputation in photonics and laser technology, fields central to my career goals. ... Strathclyde also has close industry ties—an example being the founders of M Squared, a company where I’ve been fortunate to work.”
