Physics with a Year Abroad

About this course

Physics is the foundational science, concerned with understanding the universe from its smallest constituents to its largest structures. It asks why matter behaves as it does, how forces act across space and time, what energy is and how it transforms, and what the laws are that make prediction and engineering possible. Studying physics means developing a quantitative and logical way of thinking that applies far beyond the laboratory, combining mathematical precision with the creativity that genuine scientific enquiry requires. At Imperial College London, this four-year full-time programme is designed to give you an excellent grounding across the full range of physics, from classical mechanics and electromagnetism to quantum theory and statistical mechanics. You will also develop substantial proficiency in mathematics and experimental methods, building the practical and computational ski
