In the Master of Physics (Honours) Physics with Theoretical Physics course students will be given the opportunity to develop the skills of a theoretical physicist and the physics thinking that has the potential to alter the way they look at the world around them.
The course will provide a solid understanding of core physics with an emphasis on theory, and on the formulation and solving of physics problems using mathematics and computing. In addition to the core physics course students will take additional modules that will provide the opportunity to think like a theoretical physicist and understand what it means to progress the theoretical underpinnings of physics. The final year of the course includes advanced physics and applied mathematics modules alongside a substantial research project in theoretical physics.
