The Laws of Physics control everything in our Universe from the smallest particles to the largest galaxies. You will learn about the overarching theories of gravity, electromagnetic fields, and nuclear forces, and how they govern our world and all worlds. You will also discover the mind-blowing subject of Quantum Physics. In year two, there is an emphasis on astrophysics and medical physics, as examples of applications in the real world. You will be assessed on a range of scientific and mathematical skills, as well as building competency of practical abilities. You will also be encouraged to take part in the British Physics Olympiad competition, to showcase your enthusiasm for the subject. You will understand and be able to explain why natural processes occur, such as why the sun shines, why astronauts appear ‘weightless’ in space, and more. University Courses • Accountancy • Natural Sciences • Aerospace Engineering • Particle Physics • Geology • Physics with Astrophysics • Law • Physics with Medical Physics • Materials Science • Pure Physics • Medical Biophysics • Radiography • Medicine • Software Engineering
A minimum of 5 GCSE subjects graded 9-5 including English and 2 GCSE subjects graded 9-6 including Maths and Combined Science / Physics.
