* kinematics
* dynamics
* material properties
You'll also develop essential skills in:
* data collection
* statistical analysis
* computer systems
* programming fundamentals
You'll learn about core physics concepts, from forces and energy to atomic structure and radioactivity. This will help prepare you for further study in mathematics and statistics.
### Progression
On completing the Foundation Year, you're guaranteed a place in Stage 1 of these degrees:
