Discover how to solve problems concerning the physical world on this accredited three-year course.You'll explore how the laws of physics underpin most science and engineering disciplines and build a thorough understanding of various physics, mathematics and experimental methods.This course will help you develop a large range of problem-solving skills that can also be applied to many other (seemingly unrelated) situations.Through a range of modules, laboratory work, and projects you'll advance your knowledge of topics including mechanics, relativity and quantum physics.You'll also benefit from the programme's strong links to the world-leading research being carried out by various research groups at Imperial.You'll start to specialise across a range of optional modules during your third year and use mathematical and computing tools to tackle well-defined problems.This work will equip you in essential skills such as using apparatus, conducting experiments, interpreting data, and presenting your results.Your final year culminates in the completion of a substantial project, usually carried out within one of our research groups.
Professional accreditation- Institute of Physics (IOP) With a professionally accredited degree, you’ll be able to demonstrate to employers that you have achieved an industry-recognised standard of competency.
