Nanomaterials that will change the world, next-gen computer chips and black holes colliding in deep space. This is what a career in physics looks like.

Nature is an important inspiration for research in physics, particularly in nanoscience

I study what happens when two black holes smash together and then try to understand what the gravitational wave signal from such an event would look like.

Students learn more from a practical approach to science and really enjoy the challenge of working out the concepts for themselves.

A degree in physics – particularly if it’s paired with maths – will open up far more doors than you can imagine.

Some people say nanotechnology is the next scientific revolution. It could mean faster computers, cures for cancer and solutions to the energy crisis.
