Course summary

Physics is fundamental to our understanding of how the universe works and sits right at the heart of technology development. Studying Physics helps you develop the skills employers really value – an ability to grasp concepts quickly, a determination to find coherent answers, problem-solving, analytical, mathematical and IT skills. You will develop your knowledge and understanding of scientific ideas, processes, techniques and procedures. You will have the opportunity to apply this knowledge in a theoretical and practical context when handling qualitative and quantitative data. In addition, you will analyse, interpret and evaluate scientific information, ideas and evidence to make judgements and reach conclusions and develop and refine practical design and procedures.
