Bachelor of Laws [L.L.B] [Law with options in Economics] From University of Aberdeen

Degree benefits

• We have close links to several major teaching hospitals and our staff work side-by-side with doctors and health professionals.
• With our highly rated research, the expert knowledge of our staff will directly benefit the lectures and teaching sessions you attend.
• Most medical physics classes are small (fewer than 35 students) providing you with an informal, interactive teaching environment in which you can easily raise questions. Our department achieved 100% overall satisfaction in the National Student Survey.
• The programme is accredited by the Institute of Physics (IOP) providing the first step to chartered physicist status.

Careers

• The first thing to note is that studying Medical Physics at university doesn't commit you to a career in the field. Our degrees are accredited by the Institute of Physics and give you access to the same wide diversity of careers as any other UCL physics degree.
• Physicists tend to be logical, numerate problem solvers and there is a demand for people who have developed such skills in a wide range of careers. If you are focusing on a career in medical physics there are three main paths.
• Firstly, you can train as a medical physicist in the health service. Secondly, you can follow a career in industry: MRI scanners, radiotherapy equipment, and physiological monitoring equipment, for example, all need researching, manufacturing, supplying and maintaining. Thirdly, you may pursue a career in research, probably initially by taking a higher degree - an MSc or a PhD.
