Where to study Astrophysics?
An Astrophysics degree has the unique potential to provide students with an understanding of the most up-to-date discoveries in the Universe. During the programme, students will be introduced to all aspects of Physics and Astronomy from Quantum Mechanics to Cosmology. In the second year, there is a week-long field trip to the Teide Observatory in Tenerife, where students make astronomical measurements at a professional observatory. Offered in conjunction with the Astrophysics Research Institute at Liverpool John Moores University, the four-year Astrophysics degree will equip students with skills relevant for further study of the universe at postgraduate research level as well as for jobs in a wide range of careers.
Core physics topics include: Newtonian Dynamics, Wave Phenomena, The Material Universe, Working with Physics, Practical Physics and Maths for Physics, Electromagnetism, Condensed Matter, Quantum and Atomic Physics and Nuclear and Particle Physics.
There are modules on Astronomy Fundamentals, Astronomical Techniques, Stellar Astrophysics, Galaxies and Cosmology. Advanced topics include Computational Astrophysics, Communication of Astrophysical Ideas, Chaos Theory, and Dynamical Astronomy.
The two-metre Aperture Liverpool Telescope sited on La Palma in the Canaries, which is the largest robotically controlled telescope in the world, will provide you with unique access to observations from a major research facility when you undertake a research project in your final year.

Department resources
In 2012 the University opened the purpose built, state-of-the-art £23 million award-winning Centralised Teaching Laboratories, these have transformed the way in which Physical Sciences are taught at the University. We also offer spacious, well equipped research laboratories, a new projects laboratory and a powerful supercomputer. In house facilities include the Liverpool Semiconductor Detector centre, the Stephenson Institute for Renewable Energy, the Surface Science Research centre, nuclear instrumentation and magnetism laboratories and a supercomputer cluster.
The Department of Physics has produced three Nobel Laureates.
Accreditation
Our programmes are accredited by the Institute of Physics which means they satisfy the academic requirements for Chartered Physicist status.
Why this subject?
Be part of a supportive community working together to do great science. Our open-door approach enables us to offer you a friendly and supportive learning environment.
Create a degree to suit you. You can tailor your course to reflect your ambitions, with degree options ranging from Astrophysics to Nuclear Science, including four-year MPhys or three-year BScs. We realise that you may still be deciding which aspects of physics are of the most interest to you. Our programmes are designed to be flexible and allow the transfer of students up to the end of Year Two between any of the physics programmes.
Prepare for your professional career. All of our BSc and MSc programmes are accredited by the Institute of Physics. A physics MSc degree from Liverpool satisfies the academic requirements for starting your registration as a Chartered Physicist. Both the Physics with Nuclear Technology and Physics with Radiation protection courses are designed to provide skill sets necessary for the growing industrial and environmental careers related to nuclear science.
Be at the forefront of modern physics. Our internationally renowned academics carry out, and often lead, research on three continents using state of the art instruments developed and built in the Department. Working alongside them there are opportunities to carry out projects at the LHC at CERN and in many international and national research centres in the USA, Canada, Japan, Korea and many European countries.
Learn in our award-winning facilities. Our facilities are second to none; in particular our £23 million state-of-the-art Central Teaching Laboratories have transformed the way in which Physical Sciences are taught at the University. We also offer spacious, well-equipped research laboratories, a new projects laboratory and a powerful supercomputer. In house facilities include the Liverpool Semiconductor Detector centre, the Stephenson Institute for Renewable Energy, the Surface Science Research centre, nuclear instrumentation and magnetism laboratories and a supercomputer cluster.
