Studying Physics will give you the chance to investigate and understand some of the fundamental laws of the universe, from the tiniest particles of matter to vast star systems. We embrace both the practical and theoretical sides of physics so you’ll also get involved in lots of practical experiments to put your new skills and knowledge to the test.
