PhD
The Open University - Institute of Educational Technology
The OU is Europe’s largest provider of university-level online STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths) programmes. The eSTEeM unit (www.open.ac.uk/esteem) works across University boundaries to bring together STEM academics to innovate, evaluate and research in STEM teaching and learning.
PhD / MPhil
The Open University - Department of Physics and Astronomy
Research in physics contributes to the University’s interdisciplinary centre for research in physical and environmental sciences, CEPSAR, the Biomedical Research Network and the science and engineering scholarship centre, eSTEeM. There are four research themes: Atomic, Molecular and Optical Computational and Theoretical Physics Physics Education Plasma Science and Engineering.
MSc
The Open University - Faculty of Science
This MSc course offers an opportunity to examine some of contemporary science's most pressing issues and to develop a wide range of skills associated with masters-level study. You can choose any of the current modules within the postgraduate science programme, which means that you can tailor this MSc to suit your own interests.
MPhil / PhD
The Open University - Department of Physics and Astronomy
This observationally-focussed topic examines the formation of massive stars in our galaxy. The formation of massive young stars is often triggered by ionised gas regions that expand into their surrounding gas and molecular clouds, 'triggering' a next generation of stars.
MPhil / PhD
The Open University - Department of Physics and Astronomy
The Physics Education Research Group brings together physicists with an interest in how students learn and a passion for improving their teaching. At the OU this research theme is inevitably concerned with the full range of educational technologies, pedagogical methodologies and evaluative techniques that are required to support, sustain and improve the evidence-based teaching of physics in a large and diverse organisation.
MPhil / PhD
The Open University - Department of Physics and Astronomy
The study of extrasolar planets is a rapidly moving field at the forefront of astrophysics. The Astronomy Discipline is involved in the search for new exoplanets, in multiwavelength follow-up studies of established planets, consideration of habitability in novel contexts, and in the modelling of exoplanetary atmospheres and interiors.
PhD / MPhil
The Open University - Department of Physics and Astronomy
Cosmology and extragalactic astronomy at the OU focuses on the star-forming galaxies, active galaxies and strong gravitational lensing, addressing fundamental questions about the evolution of galaxies and their dark matter haloes. We have a strong record of promoting the visibility of graduate students in major international consortia.
MPhil
The Open University - Department of Physics and Astronomy
The Atomic, Molecular and Optical Physics Research Group investigates a wide range of fundamental and applied research including: - The study of physical and chemical processes in the atmosphere including global warming, ozone depletion and aerosol formation. - Many body theory and its applications to condensed matter studies including properties of graphene. - Experimental astrochemistry and astrobiology. - The study of cold atoms and the formation of optical lattices. - Experimental and theoretical study of electron molecule interactions - Irradiation of biomolecules and cellular material. - Biomolecular clusters. The group conducts theoretical and experimental interdisciplinary research with an international focus.
MPhil / PhD
The Open University - Department of Physics and Astronomy
Astrochemistry is the study of molecules in space, how they form, where they form, and what role they play in shaping the formation and evolution of astrophysical systems, particularly in star and planet formation. The chemical interactions between atoms, ions, and molecules in both the gas and solid phase span from the coldest, darkest regions of space, known as the interstellar medium, right to the surface of planets, where such processes may be key in astrobiology - the study of the emergence of life.
PhD / MPhil
The Open University - Department of Physics and Astronomy
We have a wide range of research in theoretical and computational physics, including condensed matter theory, modelling of electron scattering from molecules and molecular clusters, theory of cold atom quantum simulators and finally biophysics. Our team of PhD students is carrying out research at the forefront of these fields.
