What the college says

Ever wondered what is inside a proton? How to work out where your cannonball will land? How fast your satellite will have to go to maintain a stable orbit? Then this fascinating Physics course will provide a unique challenge developing many sought after skills as well as knowledge. The Russell Group of universities report ‘Informed Choices’ in 2018 has identified Physics as the second most sought after A level and is a key subject for higher education courses. Physics and other 'facilitating' subjects at A-level will open up many more university course options. Physics can lead to employment as a geophysicist/field seismologist, Healthcare scientist, research scientist (physical sciences), meteorologist, structural engineer or technical author. Studying A Level Physics can lead to degree courses in Mathematics, Physics, Mechanical Engineering, Civil Engineering, Economics or Computer Science.
