BURSARY - If you study this course you will be eligible for the University of Salford Subject Bursary - which is £1k a year for each year of your degree. This is an automatic bursary which means you won't be means tested and you don't have to fill out an application form to get it.

 

Physics underpins much in our everyday lives: basic magnetism led to CAT, PET and MRI scanners, photonics led to CD's, LED displays and barcode scanners. In fact much of technology today; mobile phones, solar panels, hydrogen cars, computer technology, music technology and many more, are founded in physics. As a result physicists are in great demand in almost every walk of life.

This physics degree, accredited by the Institute of Physics, will form the ideal basis for the career of your choice, widening your view of the role of physics while giving you a thorough understanding of the methods used by physicists in the investigation of natural and engineered systems.

Visit the Physics website to see full details of the course and modules.
