How to apply

A Physics degree at Hull offers insight into the mysteries of the physical world and universe. It provides the conceptual and mathematical understanding of fundamental and applied topics required for a research career. It fosters the skills needed to apply scientific knowledge for careers in industry. A Physics degree is also ideal for those who are fascinated by science but are looking for a general professional career. At Hull we emphasise numerical, problem solving, presentational and other transferable skills valued by graduate employers. 

All of our programmes, except for the BSc Physics and Philosophy degree, are accredited by the Institute of Physics, guaranteeing delivery of all core topics of physics.  Our teaching is informed by our world-leading research in areas such as lasers, optoelectronics, nanoscience, physics at the extreme and theoretical physics. We combine traditional and innovative teaching methods and all students undertake a final year research project. In the 2011 National Student Survey, we received a score of 100% for overall student satisfaction.

We offer the following  three year BSc degree programmes and four year MPhys programmes. The BSc Physics with a foundation year is a four year course.
