Overview
Our BSc Physics with a Foundation Year programme will prepare you with everything you need to study Physics at undergraduate level here at UEA. We’ll fully support you with all the necessary knowledge and skills needed for a successful degree, and you’ll make a smooth transition into university study and research. Once you’ve completed the foundation year, you’ll progress onto your BSc Physics degree. In small teaching groups, we offer a wide range of subjects, including astrophysics, quantum physics, geophysics, fluid mechanics and computing in a friendly environment. You’ll receive individual attention and feedback on your work and projects. Our highly flexible degree allows to choose optional modules of your interest in addition to core modules. You’ll undertake a theoretical or experimental project in your final year. At this stage, you’ll be prepared to design a project to answer a question you have in mind or discover the research direction of our staff. You can also work on a medical physics project, in collaboration with the hospital next to campus.
