Physics with Astrophysics and Cosmology BSc

About

Our Physics with Astrophysics and Cosmology BSc course will give you an understanding of fundamental aspects of physics, astrophysics and cosmology covering areas such as special and general relativity, quantum mechanics, fields and waves, the physics of planets, stars, galaxies and the universe. Approximately one quarter of the course is astrophysics and cosmology related. Youll carry out extensive astrophysics or cosmology related project work in your third year to gain an insight into the skills and conduct of scientific research. Youll be taught by internationally renowned academics with links to the Large Hadron Collider at CERN and the LIGO gravitational wave observatory.
