Course summary

If you're intrigued by the universal principles of physics and the logical beauty of mathematics, our Physics with Mathematics programme explores their deep-rooted connection in understanding how the world works. From acquiring sought after employability skills, to the possibility of spending time in industry, you will graduate with the analytical, critical thinking, programming and teamworking skills that are highly valued by employers in a broad range of sectors. *Why choose this course?

  • Acquire the advanced techniques and skills to solve real-world problems at the interface of Physics and Mathematics
  • Develop your own research interests and explore frontier topics such as quantum physics, fluid mechanics and wave propagation
  • Undertake a research project and professional development activities in preparation for academic research and industry roles
  • Benefit from hands-on laboratory work, problem-solving sessions, innovative assessments and small-group tutorials
  • Be career ready by gaining transferrable, professional and employability skills
Physics and Mathematics are deeply connected subjects, and pivotal in gaining insight into how the world works. Mathematics is the essential framework to describe physical phenomena precisely. Equations and formulae allow relationships between different physical quantities to be expressed, and mathematical models predict the behaviour of systems under various conditions. Physics helps us understand the fundamental laws that govern the universe, from the smallest particles to the largest galaxies. Many technologies we rely on today are based on principles of physics. From powering our world to advancing medicine and technology, physics is at the heart of innovation. Studying this combination helps develop strong analytical and critical thinking skills and can lead to a more profound comprehension of the subject and the mathematical theories that underpin it, as you will be taught by world-leading researchers in state-of-the-art facilities with plenty of opportunities to apply your learning through real-world scenarios. About Keele Keele University was established in 1949 by the former Vice-Chancellor of Oxford University. Founded to meet the needs of a changing world, Keele has always had a pioneering vision to be a different kind of university. We excel in both teaching and research, with some of the most satisfied students in England, and research that is changing lives for the better at a regional, national and global level. Our beautiful 600-acre campus is one of the biggest in Britain – but all the most important services and facilities are on your doorstep, with accommodation, teaching spaces, facilities including a medical centre, sports centre and pharmacy, and a range of shops, eateries and entertainment venues – including the Students’ Union – clustered around the centre.
