Physics is about beautiful ideas and deep questions
Physics aims to observe and explain the behaviour of the physical universe. It looks for laws which apply everywhere and to everything. One of the joys of physics is seeing how a simple principle, established after studying one problem, can go on to explain seemingly unrelated phenomena.
Our courses
Our three-year courses
Our flexible courses offer excellent teaching informed by our research. You can tailor your course to your interests with optional modules in your later years of study.
- Physics (BSc)
- Physics with Astrophysics (BSc)
- Mathematics and Physics (BSc)
- Physics and Business Studies (BSc)
Our four-year courses
These courses share the same core as the three-year versions. They then let you dig deeper with specialised modules. You'll undertake a dedicated research project as well.
