物理学，天体物理学和宇宙学MPhys荣誉

我们的MPhys物理学，天体物理学和宇宙学学位使您对宇宙物理定律与天体物理学和宇宙学领域之间的关系有了更深入的了解。专业教学是由我们在太空和行星科学，观测天体物理学和粒子宇宙学方面处于世界领先水平的活动提供的，并在第四年完成一个单独的研究项目和高级选择。您将在核心物理领域获得全面的基础知识，例如第一年的量子物理学和电磁学，第二年的量子力学和相对论以及第三年的粒子和原子物理学。此外，该计划还包括您第二年的天文学，天体物理学和宇宙学讲座，以及您第三年的恒星天体物理学和大爆炸宇宙学讲座，以及天体物理学和宇宙学的
Develop your understanding of the relationship between the physical laws of the universe and the astrophysical and cosmological domains. We conduct world-leading investigations in space and planetary science, observational astrophysics, and observational and theoretical cosmology - and this directly informs what you learn In Year 1 you will study core modules that provide you with a solid grounding in the fundamentals of physics and you will also perform laboratory experiments with our state-of-the-art equipment and associated software. In Year 2 your core modules start to delve deeper into astrophysics with fascinating lectures in cosmology, astronomy and solar system science. In Year 3, you study a wide variety of optional modules and core modules. In your final year, you specialise further by selecting more optional modules, alongside undertaking an independent MPhys Project within your area of interest. How do I choose my optional modules in Year 3 and 4 There are two ways you can do this: Option 1 Keep your horizons open and explore your interests by selecting any optional modules from across our broad spectrum of topics, subject to prerequisites. Option 2 We have grouped together a selection of modules to create ‘pathways’ that help guide your choices so that you can focus on your specific area of interest. These pathways are: Cosmology Space Physics We’ll ask you to indicate your preference for one of our pathways from Option 2 near the end of Year 1. The modules recommended for each pathway can be found in our subject brochure. In Year 3 you will also complete a research project. If you’ve selected the Cosmology Pathway, you will take the Cosmology or Astrophysics Group Project module, otherwise you will take the Astrophysics Group Project module. In Year 4 you will spend much of your final year working on your independent research project. Our academics are experts in their fields so your project topic will be exciting and explore new research frontiers. In addition, you will take 6 Master’s-level modules, three of which are core, and three optional to reflect your interests. If you’ve chosen a pathway, then you’ll study modules associated with that choice. What if I want to change my choices That’s fine We can guide you to optional modules that suit your interests. Also, did you know that you can switch to one of our other degrees at the end of Year 1 if you feel that would suit you better This is because all of our Physics degrees offer a common set of core modules in Year 1.
