Physics is the most multifaceted discipline of Science. It involves exploring, experimenting and theorising, with all the scientific topics as its playground. A physicist is someone who wants to figure things out. To do so, he/she relies on a broad toolkit, from complex simulations run by computer codes to simple models based on a mathematical idea. Our course of Physics allows students to discover where lies their best potential.

If you like to think, guess, bet, tweak, explore, discover and want to contribute to tomorrow’s new and emerging technologies, the Physics course is a good place to be.

The foundation year (Level 3 modules) will develop your study and analytical skills in preparation for your future study in physics and develop an understanding of the knowledge which underpins the subject.
