This four-year integrated master's uses mathematics to study fundamental physics. It covers particle physics, cosmology, and condensed-matter and atomic physics, with less emphasis on experimental technique than many physics courses. Teaching is led by active researchers, the final year centres on an independent research project, and you build Python programming and statistical analysis skills. Optional study abroad and placements are available.
