Why does a hot-air balloon rise? Why did the Millennium Bridge wobble so much that it had to be closed? Why does warm honey flow much more easily than cold honey? This course is for students who enjoyed Physics at GCSE and want to develop their understanding of the subject to a much greater depth. Physics helps to unlock the mysteries of the Universe and is one of the most powerful enablers of innovation and discovery. Physicists collaborate with other researchers and apply their knowledge and technical skills in response to the major challenges of our time.
A typical academic profile of a girl entering Year 12 is 10 GCSEs, with the majority in grades 7 to 9. These must include English and Mathematics at Grade 6 or above AND at least a Grade 7 in those subjects you wish to study at A Level (Grade 9 in Mathematics to study Further Mathematics). At least Grade 7 in IGCSE Physics or 77 Double Award Science.
