Entry routes are either Physical Sciences (TR063) or Theoretical Physics (TR035) leading to degrees in Physics, Physics and Astrophysics, Nanoscience and Theoretical Physics.
The School of Physics has a well-established international reputation for innovative research in Magnetic, Electronic and Photonic Materials, Nanoscience and Computational Physics, all areas that are highly relevant to the national priority theme of leadership in Information and Communication Technology
Physics lies at the heart of most science and technology. Even modern biology seeks to analyse many of the processes of life in terms of physical laws. The search for a fundamental understanding and the drive towards technological development in areas such as computer hardware continue to pose fresh challenges to physicists. They are tackled with a combination of experiment, theory and computation. Our undergraduate degree courses combine all three of these elements, and prepare the student for a wide range of careers.
