我们与兰开斯特数学和统计系共同授课，我们的理论物理与数学学位将核心物理学和专业理论物理学科目与纯数学课程结合在一起。这使您对物理的数学基础有了了解，例如，您将学习希尔伯特空间强大的数学概念如何为量子力学提供支持。在您的第一年中，您将在诸如量子物理学和电磁学等模块中涵盖物理学的核心，以及包括几何和微积分，数与关系以及概率在内的数学的核心。在第二年和第三年，核心物理模块由理论物理方案和数学主题（例如群论和微分方程）的课程补充。在课程的最后一年中，您将学习诸如量子信息和高级重力与相对论之类的高级选项，并完成有关
Taught jointly with the Department of Mathematics and Statistics, this degree combines core physics and specialised theoretical physics with pure mathematics, creating a challenging and rewarding course. This provides an understanding of the mathematical foundations of physics, for example, you will learn how quantum mechanics is underpinned by the powerful mathematical concept of a Hilbert space.<br><br>Mathematical foundations are laid down early in the degree, whilst in the latter parts the focus shifts to applications of theoretical physics. In the first year, content will be one-third quantum physics and electromagnetism and two-thirds mathematics, covering modules such as Quantum Physics and Electromagnetism, and the core of Mathematics including geometry and calculus, numbers and relations, and probability.<br><br>The physics content increases in each subsequent year. Core physics modules are complemented by modules from the theoretical physics degree and mathematical topics such as Group Theory and Differential Equations. You will also carry out a group project on current research topics such as machine learning, cryptography and the spread of infectious diseases.
