This course will provide a grounding in the principles, knowledge and skills of physics and mathematical methods.
It will provide sufficient in-depth subject knowledge to enable students to embark on future employment or further study (e.g. MSc) or academic/industrial research.
It will provide experience in a variety of working styles such as group, collaborative and independent working essential for the modern workplace.
It will provide the opportunity to develop skills and techniques used in physics which have wider applications (e.g. independent working, scientific problem solving, data analysis, computational techniques, preparation of scientific reports and use of (IT), communication of scientific ideas).
