在该学位课程中，物理学的研究特别关注天体物理学现象：从恒星和行星到星系和宇宙学。天体物理学提供了一个天然的实验室，可以在其中探索物理定律以及某些天体物体（例如脉冲星，类星体和黑洞），以在极端条件下测试这些定律。您将对理论物理学的主要主题有一个基本的了解，并将被介绍给实验物理学的方法，从而为进一步研究物理学打下坚实的基础。您将接受有关更专业的实验技术的培训，并扩展您对现代物理学研究的了解。还将向您介绍天体物理学的基础，涵盖的主题包括我们太阳系的物理学，恒星和星系的起源以及宇宙的演化。如果您获得荣誉学位（三年
In this degree programme the study of physics is particularly focused on astrophysical phenomena: from stars and planets to galaxies and cosmology. Astrophysics provides a natural laboratory in which to explore the laws of physics, and in certain astrophysical objects such as pulsars, quasars and black holes to test those laws under extreme conditions. Astronomy lectures are complemented by our observatory, planetarium and telescope facilities. You will learn how modern physics underpins our understanding of the universe. This degree programme is accredited by the Institute of Physics. Many of our staff play leading roles in major international research projects, such as the Large Hadron Collider at CERN and the gravitational wave observatory LIGO.<br>Our graduates are employed in many areas including industry, national research laboratories, financial sector and education. Many graduates choose to study for a postgraduate degree before entering the job market.
