What the college says

Physics is a challenging and exciting subject that tells us how the world works. The study of matter and energy encourages enquiring minds to probe the hidden laws behind physical phenomena, from the simplest atom to the formation of the universe. You will encounter questions such as: Why do astronauts experience weightlessness? What must an airline pilot do to compensate for cross-winds when landing? How do electrons deliver the energy we use every day? In the second year of Physics we go on to look at how the universe began and how stars form. You will also study Particle Physics - the building blocks from which everything is made.
