Department of Physics

Our department is a vibrant and engaging community for students at all levels of study and we have state-of-the-art facilities including a new student observatory.

Our undergraduate physics courses offer a fully integrated Professional Training placement or research placement, which provides our students with an excellent foundation for both employment and further study. Undergraduate and postgraduate students are offered the chance to connect with employers during their studies through employment mentoring, talks, site visits, employment fairs and summer placements. We also have an employer mentoring programme and graduate network for our research students.
