Physics BSc
Queen's University BelfastBelfast, United Kingdom
Course overview
Physics studies how our Universe works, from the smallest atomic nucleus to the largest galaxy. It includes areas such as quantum theory, relativity and particle physics, and lies at the heart of most modern technology - for example the computer and the laser. Our BSc degree is aimed at students who wish to continue their exploration of physics beyond school, and apply their knowledge to our physics-based world of the 21st century.
We participate in the competitive IAESTE and Turing student exchange programmes, which enable students to obtain work experience in companies and universities throughout the world.
