Physics and Mathematics are deeply connected subjects, and pivotal in gaining insight into how the world works. Mathematics is the essential framework to describe physical phenomena precisely. Equations and formulae allow relationships between different physical quantities to be expressed, and mathematical models predict the behaviour of systems under various conditions.
Physics helps us understand the fundamental laws that govern the universe, from the smallest particles to the largest galaxies. Many technologies we rely on today are based on principles of physics. From powering our world to advancing medicine and technology, physics is at the heart of innovation.
Studying this combination helps develop strong analytical and critical thinking skills and can lead to a more profound comprehension of the subject and the mathematical theories that underpin it, as you will be taught by world-leading researchers in state-of-the-art facilities with plenty of opportunities to apply your learning through real-world scenarios.
