Description:

Our Physics with Astronomy programmes explore fundamental questions about the Universe, while maintaining a focus on astronomy and observational techniques. The MPhys Physics with Astronomy programme is designed to give you a broad understanding of physics and astronomy as well as gaining a wide range of mathematical and computational skills.

Accredited by the Institute of Physics (IOP), this four-year programme goes into greater depth than the BSc course, allowing you to further develop your sophisticated knowledge of the subject. Studying alongside internationally respected physicists whose work is providing the basis for revolutionary innovations, you will be part of an exciting and friendly environment and have access to state-of-the-art apparatus, including lasers, X-ray sources and electronics.
