This four-year course offers an additional year of study on top of the Physics BSc, during which students have the opportunity to specialise further by taking advanced optional modules, and undertaking a research project.
Compulsory modules in Year 1 provide a firm foundation in quantum and classical physics, underpinned by mathematics and a practical skills module which includes computing skills training.
Year 2 includes a compulsory module in quantum physics and its application to atoms and molecules, statistical thermodynamics and electromagnetic theory, along with further mathematics. The quantum and condensed matter elements of the core are completed in the Year 3.
Year 2 and 3 also include practical laboratory and project modules and optional modules to develop further and enhance knowledge of a range of physics topics.
Year 4 comprises a compulsory research project and further optional modules, generally chosen from subjects in the relevant degree specialty. A wide range of modules are available each year and normally some taught by staff from other University of London colleges.
