Develop a comprehensive foundation in both classical and contemporary physics, covering quantum mechanics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, and condensed matter physics.

The Physics curriculum examines foundational theories established by trailblazing scientists like Newton, Galileo, Faraday, and Maxwell. Modern Physics investigates our current comprehension of matter, time, and space interactions, with focused study on quantum theory and relativity.
Expand your expertise and career opportunities by pursuing a 120-point Graduate Diploma in Science (GDipSc).

Tailor your GDipSc to be either highly specialized or broadly interdisciplinary. Specialize by fulfilling the 300-level requirements of any BSc major, effectively adding another discipline to your original bachelor's degree. Alternatively, design an interdisciplinary path by selecting courses across multiple subjects.

For professionals already established in their field, the GDipSc serves as an excellent opportunity to stay current with the latest advancements in your chosen area.

Complete the GDipSc in two trimesters of full-time study, or extend it over four years part-time. Some students may require preparatory coursework, which could extend the total duration.
