Astrophysics is the branch of physics concerned with the nature, behaviour, and evolution of objects and phenomena in the universe, from planets and stars to galaxies, black holes, and the structure of space-time itself. It applies the principles and methods of physics to questions of extraordinary scale and strangeness, from how stars burn and die to the origin and ultimate fate of the universe. Astrophysics sits at the frontier of human knowledge, where some of the most fundamental questions about existence remain unanswered, and where the tools of observation and theory are advancing rapidly. At the University of Liverpool, this five-year full-time degree includes a year abroad, during which you will study at one of the university's partner institutions around the world, following a combination of culture-related and discipline-specific modules. The year abroad adds genuine breadth t
