BSc Theoretical Physics
About this course
BSc in Theoretical Physics, a physics degree centred on mathematical and computational approaches to physical theory. Core topics include Programming, Data Analysis, and Mathematical Modelling. Students complete two extended projects in their final year. The first year covers the foundations through Physics of Everyday Life, Mathematics Skills, and Computational Data Analysis. Second-year studies advance through Analytical and Chaotic Dynamics, From Fields to Quanta, and Mathematics for Physicists. Optional modules in the second year include Observing the Universe, From Atoms to Images with Nonlinear Optics, and Physics of Climate Change.
