Bachelor of Science (Honours) - Theoretical Physics and Applied Mathematics (FG31)

If students are equally drawn to studying for a degree in maths and a degree in physics, then this Theoretical Physics and Applied Mathematics BSc programme is for them. The course is a joint honours degree between the School of Physics and Astronomy and the School of Mathematics. The Theoretical Physics and Applied Mathematics BSc degree course draws on the expertise of Birmingham physicists and mathematicians engaged in cutting-edge research. Initially the time is split evenly between the School of Physics and Astronomy and the School of Mathematics, in later years students can choose to focus on one or keep options from both. As the two Schools are physically located next door to one another and the subjects themselves are close neighbours too, this joint honours course is unique in providing students a cohesive programme of study with plenty of choice. Modern applied mathematics has provided many concepts that have revolutionised physical thought in unexpected directions.
