Physics

Our Physics programme at Keele is designed to provide you with a solid foundation in core physics concepts, graduate skills and attributes defined by the Institute of Physics (IoP) accreditation framework. You will have opportunities for individual advanced project work, collaborative learning, work and educational placements, and to explore frontier topics guided by our world-leading researchers - from real-world applications to “blue-skies” astrophysics. Designed to provide you with the specialist skills you will need as a physicist, our Physics programme has core practical, academic and professional employability modules embedded throughout the curriculum. From hands-on practice in conducting physics experiments and learning computer programming, to dedicated career-focused sessions and innovative assessments, we will provide you with a strong foundation of key skills for your future career.

This programme has recently been refreshed, and the new structure is being reviewed by the IoP to ensure continued accreditation.
