Bachelor of Arts [B.A] [Economics and Human Resource Management] From University of Strathclyde

The MPhys in Theoretical Physics is typically a five-year Integrated Masters course run by the School of Physics and Astronomy. During your degree, you will be introduced to core topics in mainstream physics Ð such as mechanics, waves, light, electricity and magnetism Ð as well as learning the fundamental mathematical skills needed for application to physics.

In the first two years of your studies you will also study modules from the School of Mathematics and Statistics, as mathematics is the language of physics. Depending on how many mathematics modules you choose to do, you may be able to choose modules in other subjects such as astronomy, chemistry, computer science, philosophy, or many other subjects from across the University. The flexible nature of the degree programmes at StÊAndrews means that by appropriate choice of modules in first and second year, you may be able to change your final degree topic during your course.

As you advance in your degree, you are given more flexibility to choose your focus of study, whether that be in pure theoretical physics or in the direct application of physics to particular areas of interest.
