Physics with Particle Physics and Cosmology, BSc (Hons)
- Physics with Particle Physics and Cosmology addresses the meaning of everything.
- From quantum information and a grand unified theory, to from dark matter and high energy particle physics, this subject can take you anywhere.
- Over the course of a three-year degree you will delve into the building blocks of matter and the vastness of the cosmos.
- You will study from a selection of modules including astronomy and cosmology, nuclear physics, the quantum world and climate physics.
- We will teach you how fundamental physics is applied across different disciplines and how it connects to new advances in engineering, medicine and mathematics.
- Studying physics at Swansea University gives you access to genuinely world-leading teaching and cutting edge facilities.
If you don’t have the necessary entry requirements to enter on to the first year of a degree, you may be offered a place on a degree course with an integrated foundation year.
Campus Information
Singleton Park Campus
Travelling west on the M4 leave the motorway at junction 42 and follow signs for Swansea on the A483 (Fabian Way). On crossing the River Tawe the A483 becomes the A4067. Continue west along this road, passing Sainsbury’s Superstore on the left-hand side of the road. After approximately 1.5 miles there is a footbridge over the road. The University’s main entrance lies just before the footbridge and is controlled by traffic lights. As you approach the lights, keep to the right-hand lane and prepare to turn right into the University. There is a Visitors’ Car Park immediately right of the main entrance. There are large Park-and-Ride sites at Port Tennant and on the A483 east of Swansea, at Landore, on the A4067 north of the city. All sites are open from 7.00 am until 7.00 pm, Monday to Saturday.
