Our Physics with Astrophysics program is the UK's longest-running degree of its kind, offering you the chance to investigate diverse subjects from stellar evolution to galactic formation, and from exoplanet hunting to black hole detection. Every Physics student at our institution follows the same foundational curriculum in physics and mathematics, aligned with the Institute of Physics (IOP) 'core of physics' standards. This encompasses essential topics like classical mechanics, wave theory, electromagnetic fields, special relativity, thermodynamics, and quantum physics. Opting for the Physics with Astrophysics specialization allows you to combine these fundamentals with dedicated astrophysics modules and engage in research projects spanning key astrophysics domains, collaborating with experts from the School's two astrophysics research teams.
