This programme will be made up of a combination of modules from both Education and Physics. The course will introduce you to major perspectives from which education may be studied whilst exploring the fundamentals of Physics.
Physics is a fundamental, curiosity-driven discipline, with applications in many other areas of science and technology. You will gain an understanding of the subject fundamentals such as quantum mechanics, relativity and electromagnetism, and will apply this knowledge to solve problems, plan investigations and report your work.
By combining Physics with Education, you will learn how social, political and economic factors may impact on the application of physics knowledge in schools. You will explore the present and future developments in education and professional practice, which will prepare you for a career in teaching.
Studying Physics for three years as part of a combined programme will lead to a degree accredited by the Institute of Physics.
