Programme Structure
The Bachelor of Physics is completed over 3 years of full-time study at Birmingham (Edgbaston), with September intake. Expand each year for core modules. Year three includes group studies plus advanced quantum and statistical physics, with specialist options available.
Year one
Year one at Edgbaston builds a physics foundation through classical mechanics and relativity, electromagnetism and temperature and matter, introduction to probability and statistics, mathematics for physicists 1, physics laboratory 1, physics and communication skills 1, and quantum mechanics with optics and waves. You develop experimental habits, mathematical tools, and the conceptual frameworks used across the degree. Teaching links theory with laboratory work so you can connect equations to measured phenomena. By the end of the year you should be ready for advanced electromagnetism, quantum mechanics, and statistical physics in year two.

Year two
Year two develops intermediate physics through electromagnetism 2, mathematics for physicists 2, optics, particles and nuclei with a quantum approach to solids, physics laboratory 2, a physics project, physics and communication skills 2, quantum mechanics 2, and statistical physics and entropy. You apply quantum and statistical methods to particles, solids, and thermal systems with greater independence. Modules strengthen laboratory judgement, project skills, and mathematical modelling. You leave the year prepared for group studies, quantum mechanics 3, and statistical physics in year three.

Year three
Year three includes group studies, quantum mechanics 3, and statistical physics, alongside specialist optional modules that complete your credit load across areas such as nuclear, particle, condensed matter, or astrophysics pathways. You refine advanced theoretical tools and collaborative project skills through independent and group investigation. The year consolidates research-ready judgement, scholarly communication, and professionally aware thinking valued by graduate employers. Graduates are prepared for physicist, theoretical physicist, experimental physicist, applied physicist, nuclear physicist, particle physicist, and astrophysicist pathways across research and industry.
