Program Overview

Geophysics plays a key role in understanding what lies beneath the earth's surface. This knowledge is vital for large engineering projects such as wind farms, carbon dioxide capture and storage, and hydrogen storage complexes.

With our geophysics master's degree course, you'll learn how to apply the geophysical techniques needed to sustainably explore Earth’s resources. The skills, knowledge and experience you'll gain will help you start a successful career and become a leader in geophysics and sustainable development.

You'll be based at our Waterfront Campus at The National Oceanography Centre Southampton (NOCS), one of the world's largest centres for marine education and research. Here you'll be studying the part of our planet’s subsurface which is essential to moving forward with the energy transition, and helping to transform the lives of others by decarbonising our economy.

During your studies, you'll develop your understanding of modern survey methods, and gain experience in planning surveys. You'll also gather, process and analyse data which is critical to enabling safe and efficient development.

    Scholarships

    Exetended Scholarship For Sep 2026 Intake 

    Undergraduate Global Excellence Scholarship is £ 3,000

    Weve extended the deadline for our £4,000 Excellence Scholarship until 31st July, giving you more time to take advantage of this opportunity.

    In addition, we’ve launched a new £2,000 Vice-Chancellor’s Global Achievers Award, as we welcome Professor Phillip Wright as Acting Vice-Chancellor.

    This means you now have the opportunity to secure up to £6,000 in guaranteed scholarships.”

    Eligibility & Conditions (Clear + Positive Framing)

    • To be eligible for the £2,000 Vice-Chancellor’s Global Achievers Award, you’ll need to pay your £2,000 tuition fee deposit by 30th June. If you’re eligible for another Southampton-funded scholarship, you could even receive additional funding: 

    For example, Business School students may qualify for: 

    • £9,000 Dean’s Scholarship → plus £2,000 (50% Excellence) + £2,000 VC Award = £13,000 total
    • £5,000 Merit Scholarship → plus £2,000 (50% Excellence) + £2,000 VC Award = £9,000 total

    The good news is that this deposit is not an extra cost—it’s fully deducted from your tuition fees, along with your scholarship.”
    If you need more time to pay the deposit, we may be able, in exceptional circumstances, agree to a late extension, but to guarantee at least £6000, we advise you to make the deposit as soon as possible and by the 30th of June.
