Physics BSc (Hons)

Physics is about understanding the world around us, from the smallest particle to the largest galaxy. Physicists are problem solvers, future shapers, and at Northumbria we empower our Physics students to think creatively about how to tackle the challenges we put in front of them.
Research strengths in areas such as quantum devices, smart and nano materials, soft matter, chaos theory and dynamical systems underpin our Physics course. This breadth provides an opportunity to customise your degree in the final year – focusing on what matters to you most.

You will learn from world-leading experts, and develop transferable skills including problem solving, data analysis, computer programming and communication. A Physics BSc from Northumbria is highly valued by employers and cuts across disciplines, giving you a vital edge in a competitive job market.

Northumbria has recently invested more than one million pounds into Physics facilities and learning environments, further enhancing our reputation for innovation and excellence.
