Description
UCAS Code: F301
Physics, the most fundamental of all sciences, involves the exploration of nature in the broadest possible sense. The Physicist's goal is to uncover the fundamental truths about nature and where possible, to exploit that basic knowledge for the benefit of mankind.
Dundee Physicists have had a tremendous impact on the modern world - the electronic devices driving pixels in virtually all laptop computers were first conceived and made here. Our current staff are working in some of the most exciting areas of cutting-edge physics, including renewable energy and the environment, robust sensors, and physics applied to medicine and biology.
The Dundee Physics degree includes flexibility with the study of essential core topics to give you firm foundations in the subject.
