MPhys (Hons) Physics with Space Science

What's the course about?

Physics is a fundamental science that seeks to describe and explain the material world in terms of particles and their interactions. This study takes place on many scales, from quantum dynamics to atmospheric physics – both areas currently under research at the University of Hertfordshire. Space science is the application of physics and engineering to the space environment of the Earth, and to spacecraft systems and dynamics. The development of ingenious instrumentation which is able to push measurements to their physical limits is important to both physics and space science are the

Your main campus is College Lane.

This is where the creative arts, science and health-related subjects are based. This means you’ll share the campus with future nurses, scientists, artists and more. You can use the common rooms to relax with friends, work out in the 24-hour gym or have a drink in our on-campus pub or cafes. We also have restaurants for you to eat in or grab something on the go. Our Learning Resources Centres are open 24/7, which means you can study whenever suits you best. Want to pop over to the other campus? You can take the free shuttle bus or walk there in just 15 minutes.
