Job Opportunity Potential

96% of Keele graduates were in a job or further study within six months of graduating (DLHE, 2017)

When you graduate, you might choose to do a PGCE to become a teacher. Employers value numerate, versatile graduates who can communicate. With a Keele Education and Physics degree you could take up roles as a medical physicist, geophysicist or enter the space, telecommunications or nuclear industries. You may instead find employment as a science writer, chartered accountant, IT consultant, teacher, educational developer or curriculum innovator. If you take electives in modern languages, you may have the opportunity to graduate with an enhanced degree title, for example, ‘Education and Physics with competency in Japanese’ and teach abroad. Many of our graduates go onto further study at Master’s/PhD level.
