Physics spans from the smallest particles like quarks to the vastness of galaxies, covering all matter and timescales in between. By merging physics with astrophysics, you'll apply physical principles to investigate the universe—from our solar system to distant galaxies and cosmology—while deepening your knowledge of the material world. You'll examine celestial objects and cosmic phenomena, along with the tools and methods employed in contemporary astronomical research. Including a professional placement year in your program provides hands-on experience, showing how physics operates in practical settings. These placements, available both in the UK and internationally, often include compensation. We prioritize nurturing your interests while equipping you for future success. You'll develop versatile skills that unlock opportunities in the expanding space sector, finance, manufacturing, and technology.
