Mathematics and Physics BSc (Hons) BSc (Hons) BSc (Hons)

The BSc Mathematics and Physics degree is designed for those seeking mathematical rigour of theoretical physics led by discipline experts. Mathematics and Physics are closely interlinked subjects, with each providing many fascinating insights into the other. The course offers parallel tracks of theoretical physics delivered by the Physics Department and mathematical physics and applied mathematics options taught by the Mathematics Department.<br/><br/>The first year lays the foundation in physics theory and the mathematical and laboratory skills that you will need to tackle more complex content in later years. As you progress through the course the level of theoretical content increases, extending your knowledge in areas such as electromagnetism, quantum mechanics, particle theory and advanced mathematical theory.<br/><br/>The final year includes a choice of an individual project where you tackle a theoretical issue or an in-depth analysis of an applied problem. You can also choose to complete an interdisciplinary enterprise module. Whichever you choose, you will be using your newly acquired skills to investigate a relevant area of interest.<br/><br/>The wide array of optional modules provides the flexibility to tailor your learning in line with your evolving interests. In addition, the common first year allows the option to transfer onto either the MSci Mathematics and Physics, BSc Mathematics, BSc Physics, or BSc Natural Sciences at the end of the first year.<br/><br/>Our BSc in Mathematics and Physics is a highly versatile qualification. Whether you want to work in finance, engineering, medical technology, renewable energy, space exploration or beyond, this degree is a step towards achieving your goal.
