Mathematics with Physics

About this course

Mathematics with physics is a degree that explores two of the most fundamental and intellectually demanding of the natural sciences, recognising that the relationship between them is deep and reciprocal. Mathematics provides the language and logical structure through which physics is expressed: without calculus, differential equations, linear algebra, and probability, the laws of mechanics, electromagnetism, quantum theory, and relativity cannot be formulated precisely. Physics, in turn, has historically driven the development of new areas of mathematics, posing problems that require entirely new mathematical frameworks to solve. Studying both together at degree level develops a rigorous and broadly applicable quantitative mind. At the University of Essex you will study this three-year full-time degree with a typical entry tariff of 136 points. You will develop your mathematical abiliti
