Develop a profound understanding of mathematics, the fundamental language of theoretical physics, and how to apply it to solve problems in physics and beyond. The MPhys Physics with Mathematics degree enables you to combine experimental and theoretical physics with in-depth study in related fields of mathematics. You’ll study topics such as quantum physics, electromagnetism, special relativity, linear algebra, vector calculus and general relativity. You’ll develop strong analytical, modelling and computing skills that will open up a huge range of career options. Your rigorous scientific training will also be a firm foundation for PhD-level study. Physics at Southampton is ranked 3rd in the UK for graduate career prospects in the Guardian University Guide 2022. This course is accredited by the Institute of Physics.

Key areas of study include general relativity, topology, number theory, mathematics of finance and theoretical physics. In your final year you’ll take at least one Masters level mathematics module, giving you an advanced understanding of the subject. You’ll also be able to choose from a range of optional modules throughout your degree, allowing you to tailor your course to your own interests. You can choose modules in Physics and Astronomy, Mathematical Sciences, or from across the wider University such as law, management and languages. For further details on optional modules available, see our website: http://www.phys.soton.ac.uk/programmes/f3gc-mphys-physics-mathematics-4-yrs#modules Throughout your degree, you’ll also develop key transferable skills such as problem solving, data analysis and computing, which are sought after by a range employers. During year two, you’ll also have access to a programme of physics-focused career sessions, timetabled to fit in with your studies, which include application and interview workshops as well as talks from visiting professionals.

For MPhys programmes, assessment in the first and second year is a mixture of unseen written examinations, marked problem-based coursework and laboratory work. In the third year assessment is mainly by examination, although laboratory-based, computer-based and dissertation modules will use different assessment methods, as appropriate. In the fourth year of the MPhys programmes, laboratory work is replaced by a project of which involves continuous assessment, written reports and an oral examination.
