Physics with Education

About this course

Physics with education is a distinctive degree that combines rigorous training in physics with the study of educational theory and practice, preparing you both as a scientist and as someone equipped to communicate and teach the discipline. Physics is among the most fundamental of the sciences, developing the ability to model and explain how the natural world works at every scale, from quantum particles to the structure of the cosmos. Education studies, alongside this, introduces the theoretical and practical dimensions of how learning happens and how teaching can be designed to support it effectively. At the University of the West of Scotland, this four-year programme gives you a solid grounding in the core areas of physics, including mechanics, electromagnetism, quantum physics, optics and mathematical methods, while simultaneously developing your understanding of educational contexts,
