BSc (Hons) Physics and Mathematics with a Year Abroad

Combining the study of Physics and Mathematics in your degree programme will give you a strong foundation for your future career. You will learn mathematical techniques to help you deal with new ideas and will understand new concepts such as quantium mechanics and relativity. Mathematics is a fascinating, beautiful and diverse subject to study. It underpins a wide range of disciplines, from physical sciences to social science, from biology to business and finance.

Physics is the most fundamental of the sciences. New concepts, such as quantum mechanics and relativity, are introduced at degree level in order to understand nature at the deepest level. These theories have profound philosophical implications because they challenge our view of the everyday world. At the same time they have a huge impact on society since they underpin the technological revolution.

Combining the study of Physics and Mathematics in your degree programme will give you a strong mathematical training. You will learn mathematical techniques to help you to deal with new ideas that often seem counterintuitive, such as string theory, black holes, superconductors and chaos theory.
Physics and Mathematics degrees are highly prized and our graduates have excellent career opportunities.
With this degree programme you also have the option to spend your third year abroad, an incredible opportunity to spend one academic year at one our partner universities expanding your academic and cultural horizons.
