理学士（荣誉）物理学和天体物理学

这是一个广泛的，具有智力刺激性的程度，包括核心物理知识和天体物理学的全面基础。您将研究从我们太阳系的行星到最遥远的星系的宇宙的工作原理。您将学习如何分析天文数据，得出结论并提出结果。您可以花一些时间在天文实验室里，然后使用我们的机器人望远镜采集自己的数据。在您的最后一年中有两个项目要完成。<br> <br>物理和天体物理学（荣誉）理学士学位课程，三年制，全日制，<br>夹心年制
Our physics and astrophysics degree has more astrophysics content than most, taking you from stars and galaxies, to the origin of the universe. Youll be trained to use the telescopes on our roof, and there is an annual field trip to an international telescope facility in the Canary Islands.<br>On our Physics and Astrophysics course, youll spend half your time studying astrophysics modules. This means our degree programme has more astrophysics content than most, taking you from the formation and evolution of our solar system, through stars and galaxies, to the origin and evolution of the universe.<br><br>There are two telescopes on the roof of our building, which youll be trained to use from your first year. We also run a telescope on La Palma in the Canary Islands, which students use during our annual field trip. <br><br>At the start of your course, in lectures and lab classes youll cover the essential physics behind everything else youll study: heat, motion, electricity, magnetism and quantum mechanics. Youll also begin studying the fundamentals of astronomy and astrophysics with modules that cover topics such as our solar system, stars, galaxies and basic cosmology. There are practical sessions using our telescopes and, in programming classes, you can learn skills that are essential to modern astrophysics and valuable in many graduate careers, from data science to computer game design.<br><br><br> Optional placement year, Study abroad
