Mathematics and Physics, BSc (Hons)

Mathematics and physics have been intertwined since Newton's era, with physics relying on mathematical principles as its foundation. This accredited three-year programme enables students to equally explore both disciplines, covering core physics theories, abstract mathematical concepts, and their real-world applications. In a supportive environment guided by world-class researchers, students gain deeper insights into topics like quantum theory and general relativity, while some practical physics components are streamlined to accommodate the integrated curriculum. The programme offers a year-three research project option and the chance to transfer to a four-year MSci for advanced pursuits.Our internationally renowned departments provide cutting-edge facilities, including an astronomical dome, and emphasise small-group teaching in a friendly setting. With strategic partnerships like CERN and awards for promoting women in science, the course equips graduates with distinctive skills for research, industry, or specialised roles. Assessment combines examinations and assignments, with modules detailed on our website.
