• Objectives
  The joint honours BSc Mathematics & Physics programme gives you the opportunity to study both subjects at degree level. Approximately equal weighting is given to both subjects, although in the third year you may be able to choose more from one subject and tailor the degree to suit your interests. The Mathematics element gives students a foundation in many branches of mathematics, for example algebra, analysis, probability and geometry. The Physics element offers students a broad knowledge of all of the fundamental elements of physics and includes areas such as relativity, quantum mechanics, fields and waves, electromagnetism and nuclear physics.
