Mathematics and Physics

About this course

Mathematics and physics have been companion disciplines for centuries, each deepening and enriching the other. Physics poses questions about the fundamental nature of matter, energy, space, and time, and it uses mathematics as its primary language for expressing and testing ideas. Mathematics, in turn, is driven forward partly by the demands that physical problems place on it, and many areas of pure mathematics have found unexpected application in physics. Studying the two together means you encounter each discipline at its most powerful, and you develop the rare ability to move fluently between rigorous mathematical reasoning and physical intuition. At the University of Manchester, this four-year full-time MMath and Physics degree takes you to master's level in both subjects, a qualification that is distinctive and highly regarded. You will cover the core of both disciplines: in mathem
