Programme overview
Main Subject
Physics and Astronomy
Degree
BA
Study Level
Undergraduate
Physics and Philosophy combines the most rigorous and fundamental subjects in the arts and the sciences. It seeks understanding of the nature of reality and of our knowledge of it. There are strong links between physics and philosophy, and the stimulus for each discipline lies in part in the other. The Oxford research group in Philosophy of Physics is extremely active, with interests in classical space–time theories, foundations of classical statistical mechanics, quantum mechanics, quantum field theory and quantum gravity. The fourth-year MPhysPhil option courses bring students to the threshold of current research, and can lead to subject specialism. An accepted student can also complete in three years with a BA.
