About this course
Bachelor of Science in Physics (International Study), a physics degree centred on the fundamental laws of the universe. Core topics include Data Analysis, Statistics, and Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning. Students spend the third year studying abroad at a partner institution. The first year covers the foundations through Classical Mechanics and Relativity, Quantum Mechanics, Optics, Waves, and Electromagnetism, and Mathematics for Physicists 1. The second year continues with Mathematics for Physicists 2, Statistical Physics and Optics, and Quantum Mechanics and Electromagnetism 2. The final year includes advanced core studies such as Quantum Mechanics and Statistical Physics, alongside options in Particle Physics, Stars and Exoplanets, and Nuclear Physics and Nuclear Power, concluding with a research project.
