Physics with Astrophysics

About this course

Physics with astrophysics is the study of the physical universe at its largest scales, using the same laws that govern everyday phenomena to understand objects and events from planetary systems and stellar evolution to galaxies and the structure of spacetime itself. Astrophysics provides some of the most extreme and illuminating contexts in which the principles of physics can be explored and tested, from the nuclear reactions at the heart of stars to the behaviour of matter in the intense gravitational fields near black holes. For students who want to engage with physics in its most expansive form, astrophysics offers both intellectual inspiration and rigorous scientific challenge. At the University of Bath, this three-year full-time degree develops a thorough grounding in physics, covering classical and quantum mechanics, electromagnetism, thermodynamics, relativity, and the mathematic
