ObjectivesThis programme is designed to offer students a broad knowledge of all of the fundamental elements of physics and astrophysics. Physics topics include relativity, quantum mechanics, fields and waves, electromagnetism and nuclear physics.
Entry requirementsWe ask for 320 UCAS points i.e. AAC or ABB A level grades. Our teaching does not presuppose any previous knowledge of computer science and in selecting candidates for admission we do not insist on evidence of prior competence in computer programming.
