气象学（荣誉）理学士学位

该课程将物理研究与气象学入门相结合。您将了解大气过程以及用于研究大气物理学，大气动力学和气候物理学的技术。对于那些对大气科学研究感兴趣的人尤其重要。
This programme combines the study of physics with an introduction to meteorology. You will learn about atmospheric processes and the techniques used to study atmospheric physics, atmospheric dynamics and the physics of climate. It is particularly relevant for those interested in a career in atmospheric science research.<br>Year 1<br>You will study compulsory courses in physics and mathematics.<br><br>Physics 1A presents the pillars of physics upon which subsequent material is based. This will develop your problem solving and study skills. The course is innovative in its use of technology and offers an interactive learning experience.<br><br>Physics 1B introduces you to the fundamentals of quantum physics and how this impacts our understanding of the universe.<br><br>You will study Mathematics for Physics 1 and 2, which include mathematical and problem-solving skills in the context of algebra and calculus - with an increasing emphasis on physical applications.<br><br>You will be able to choose two further subjects from other academic areas.<br><br>Year 2<br>You will study modern physics and physics of fields and matter.<br><br>Supporting mathematics courses will cover:<br><br>algebra<br>calculus<br>dynamics and vector calculus<br>You will also be introduced to practical physics, including:<br><br>programming<br>data analysis<br>experimental techniques<br>You will also take meteorology courses in atmosphere and environment, and weather and climate.<br><br>If you enter the programme in Year 2 you will also take additional introductory courses in classical physics and mathematics.<br><br>Year 3<br>You will study:<br><br>thermodynamics<br>statistical mechanics<br>electromagnetism<br>optics<br>quantum mechanics<br>We also offer:<br><br>a supporting mathematics course covering Fourier analysis, probability and statistics<br>a computing course on numerical algorithms<br>an introductory course to research methods<br>Year 4<br>You will study compulsory courses covering:<br><br>condensed matter physics<br>experimental techniques<br>atmospheric dynamics<br>climate modelling<br>You will also undertake project work and select a number of option courses.
