Astrophysics (BSc (Hons))
Physics occupies a central position in science and technology. It is concerned with fundamental questions about the basic building blocks of matter and how the universe evolved.
The Astrophysics degree at UCC is designed for those who have always harboured an interest in astronomy and the physics of the universe.
The course equips students with the same fundamental background in Physics, and with the same numerical and computational skills, as those graduating via the more traditional Physics degree course. This course is not differentiated from the Physics degree until Year 3. Refer to CK408 for more details.
