Physics with Mathematics BSc (Hons)

If youre intrigued by the universal principles of physics and the logical beauty of mathematics, our Physics with Mathematics programme explores their deep-rooted connection in understanding how the world works. From acquiring sought after employability skills, to the possibility of spending time in industry, you will graduate with the analytical, critical thinking, programming and teamworking skills that are highly valued by employers in a broad range of sectors. <br/><br/><strong>Why choose this course?</strong><br/><br/><br/>• Top 10 in England for Physics (NSS 2025, broad-based universities)*<br/><br/><br/><br/>• Top 10 in the UK for Mathematics (Guardian University Guide, 2026)<br/><br/><br/><br/>• Accredited by the Institute of Physics (IoP)<br/><br/><br/><br/>• Acquire the advanced techniques and skills to solve real-world problems at the interface of Physics and Mathematics<br/><br/><br/><br/>• Benefit from hands-on laboratory work, problem-solving sessions, innovative assessments and small-group tutorials<br/><br/><br/><br/>Physics and Mathematics are deeply connected subjects, and pivotal in gaining insight into how the world works. Mathematics is the essential framework to describe physical phenomena precisely. Equations and formulae allow relationships between different physical quantities to be expressed, and mathematical models predict the behaviour of systems under various conditions.<br/><br/>Physics helps us understand the fundamental laws that govern the universe, from the smallest particles to the largest galaxies. Many technologies we rely on today are based on principles of physics. From powering our world to advancing medicine and technology, physics is at the heart of innovation. <br/><br/>Studying this combination helps develop strong analytical and critical thinking skills and can lead to a more profound comprehension of the subject and the mathematical theories that underpin it, as you will be taught by world-leading researchers in state-of-the-art facilities with plenty of opportunities to apply your learning through real-world scenarios. <br/><br/><strong>About Keele</strong><br/><br/>Keele University was established in 1949 by the former Vice-Chancellor of Oxford University.
