Physics

Course summary

Physics is the most ambitious and all-encompassing academic discipline there is. From understanding the absolutely smallest scale, fundamental interactions that underpin every other science, to grasping the elegant physical laws that give rise to all of the phenomena we experience daily, and finally to comprehending the enormity of the cosmos whilst delving into where we came from and what the future holds, no other subject offers such a breathtaking range of mind-expanding challenges. Physics is one of the most sought-after qualifications. A mastery of the subject requires numeracy, literacy, problem-solving skills, imagination, independent and collaborative skills, and a thirst for knowledge; consequently, the range of career opportunities it opens up is vast.
