Physics is the study of nature in its most comprehensive form. Scientists in this field uncover the workings of the cosmos and apply these discoveries to advance human welfare. Our program encompasses both theoretical and practical physics.
Acquire profound insights into core physics principles, ranging from cosmic events to quantum theory. Throughout the curriculum, you'll master classical physics concepts while exploring breakthroughs in contemporary physics.
During Level 4, you'll undertake an independent research project with hands-on lab experience. Potential projects include developing optical methods to analyze cancerous cells or studying positron interactions in photovoltaic materials to detect atomic imperfections affecting efficiency.
The University of Dundee's physics department has significantly influenced modern technology. We pioneered LCD screen development during the 1970s and 1980s. In recent years, our research has contributed to understanding exoplanet formation and developing optical measurement tools for CERN.
