Mathematics and Theoretical Physics with Science Foundation Year

About this course

Mathematics and theoretical physics is one of the most intellectually demanding combinations available at university, bringing together the two disciplines that are most concerned with understanding the fundamental structure of reality and with expressing that understanding in the most precise and general terms possible. Theoretical physics asks why the universe is the way it is, using the language of mathematics to formulate and test theories of quantum mechanics, relativity, particle physics, cosmology, and the forces that govern all physical phenomena. Mathematics provides not just the tools for theoretical physics but an autonomous domain of abstract structures with their own beauty and logic. At Lincoln this four-year full-time programme begins with a foundation year, which provides the mathematical and scientific preparation needed before the main degree begins, making the program
