Course summary

The three-year BSc Physics degree will provide you with a robust education in modern physics. You will learn the core tools of relativity, quantum mechanics and electromagnetism, and how these theories can describe the universe precisely – from galaxies to subatomic particles.

Our physics degrees are designed to offer flexibility and choice. You’ll be able to choose optional modules in each year of study to pursue your interests. And there’s flexibility to move between the BSc and MPhys degrees up until the end of the second year.

You’ll have access to exceptional research-grade facilities, including a rooftop observatory and specialist photonics labs.

Your degree will open the door to a wide range of careers, with recent graduates employed in roles ranging from physicists and engineers, to actuaries and statisticians, scientific journalists and medical researchers.

This course is accredited by the Institute of Physics.
