Warwick's Physics degree involves studying beautiful theories about the properties of space and matter. It also develops valuable transferable skills and expertise, opening doors to exciting careers and graduate job opportunities. Study with us and enjoy benefits that last a lifetime.

This course is accredited by the Institute of Physics.

Physics is a practical subject full of beautiful ideas. If you study physics with us, you will be exploring deep questions about the nature of the Universe and developing many useful skills.

Core modules introduce and develop the fundamental concepts, such as those of quantum theory and electromagnetism, and cover the mathematics used in physics. Optional modules provide opportunities to see how the basic concepts can explain the phenomena we observe.

For the final year project, you will work as a member of one of the research groups on a year-long project to explore aspects that are not yet fully understood. We encourage you to apply for summer placements and projects, which enable you to complete a small research project supervised by a member of the academic staff.
